Question

Gabriella went skiing. She paid $35 to rent skis and $15 an hour to ski. If she paid a total of $95, how many hours did she ski? Write an equation to represent the situation and solve it.

Answer 1

Answer:

She skied 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be

15x + 35 = 95 : $15 an hour plus $35 to rent

15x = 60

x = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

35 + 15x =95

Step-by-step explanation:

95-35 = 60

60/15 = 4

x=4

so she skied for 4 hours
