Answer:

[tex]c=10t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Renting a canoe on Lake Santeetlah costs

  • $5.00 per hour for each adult
  • $2.50 per hour for each child.

Let t be the number of hours of renting the canoe, then

renting a canoe on Lake Santeetlah costs

  • [tex]\$5.00t[/tex] for t hours for one adult
  • [tex]\$2.50t[/tex] for t hours for one child
  • [tex]\$2.50t\cdot 2=\$5t[/tex] for t hours for 2 childs

The total cost is

[tex]\$5t+\$5t=\$10t[/tex]

If c is the cost for the family to rent the canoe, then

[tex]c=10t[/tex]
