Question

- 1. Dan rented a bike from Cody's Bikes. It

cost $18 plus $2 per hour. If Dan paid $22,
then he rented the bike for how many hours?

Answer 1

30

Explanation:

I will subtract the 18 as we know that is how much he had to pay first

22 - 18

4

Next, divide the two.

4/2

Giving our answer, 2.

2

Answer 2

2 hours

Explanation:

18 + 2x = 22

18 - 18 + 2x = 22 - 18

2x = 4

`(2x)/(2) = (4)/(2)`

x = 2
