Respuesta :
$1.08/$0.09= amount of days late
answer=12 days
answer=12 days
Answer:
The book was 12 days late.
Step-by-step explanation:
Trevor paid a total of $1.08 as a fine for an overdue library book.
Per day penalty of the book is $0.09
Let Trevor is x days late.
Then the overdue amount as a penalty will be = $0.09x
And the expression representing the overdue amount will be
0.09x = 1.08
x = [tex]\frac{1.08}{0.09}[/tex]
= 12
Therefore, Trevor was 12 days late to return the book.
