Question

Esmerelda rents a car from a company that rents cars by the hour. She has to pay an initial fee of $50, and then they charge her $8 per hour. She has $150 available to spend on car rental. What is the greatest number of hours for which she can rent the car? (The car cannot be rented for part of an hour.)

Answer 1

the answer is 12
150-50=100
100/8=12.5
since it cannot be rented for part of an hour,and she cannot spend over 150 dollars, the answer is 12
