This weekend you are going to go kayaking down the Colorado River. The rental shop charges $13.00 to rent the kayak with paddles plus $5.00 per hour. If you go kayaking for 3 hours, how much do you owe the rental shop? I think the answer is $28.00. Please double check me.

Respuesta :

yes the answer is $28.00

Answer:

I have to pay $28 to the rental shop.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rental shop charges $13 to rent the kayak with paddles plus $5 per hour.

If i go for kayaking for x hours then equation formed to determine the rental will be = 13 + 5x

Now rental for the value of x = 3 hours

rental = 13 + 5.(3)

         = 13 + 15

         = $28

Therefore, for 3 hours of kayaking i have to owe the rental shop = $28
