Question

The total cost (c) in dollars of renting a sailboat for n days is given by the inequality c≥120+60n. what is the maximum number of days for which a sailboat could be rented if the total cost was $360?

Answer 1

4 days

Explanation:

Answer 2

For this case we have the following inequality:
c≥120 + 60n
We substitute the value of c = 360 in the inequality:
360≥120 + 60n
We clear the value of n:
360 - 120 ≥ 60n
240 ≥ 60n
240/60 ≥ n
4 ≥ n
Answer:
The maximum number of days for which a sailboat could be rented if the total cost was $ 360 is:
4 days
