A school PTA wants to rent a dunking tank for its annual school fundraising carnival. The cost is $85.00 for the first three hours and then $19.50 for each additional hour or part thereof. How long can the tank be rented if up to $185 is budgeted for this expense?

Answer:

it can be rented for 8 hours

Explanation:

From the available amount we are discounting the starting value:

185 -85 first three hours 100

We are left with $100 for the extra hours

100/19.5 = 5 additional hours

so the total hours would be the first three plus five additional for a total of eight hours.
