Question

Jeremy is taking a photography class, but he doesn't own a camera. The class organizers will rent him a camera for $6 per day. Jeremy can spend up to $50 for the class, but he has to pay $15 to register for the class as well as rent the camera. The number of days, d, that Jeremy can rent the camera is represented by the inequality 6d + 15 < 50. Select the number of days Jeremy can rent the camera with the money he has.

Answer 1

5 days, because 6(5)+15< 50  -> 45<51
6 days would be $51 dollars which is over Jeremy's budget

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

6d+15<50

subtract 15 from both sides

6d<50-15

6d<35

divide both sides by 6

d<35/6

d<5 5/6

So he can only rent it for 5 days.  If he rented for 6, it would be $51, which is too much.
