Question

Marlo wants to rent and ride a bike at a state park. there are two parks in his area. one has an entrance fee of $8 and charges $2 per hour for bike rentals. the other park has an entrance fee of $2 and charges of $5 per hour for bike rentals

Answer 1

lets say you're leave at 3 hrs so 8 is the original 3×3 is 9 then add 8, 9+8=19

same for the bottom

3 hrs 2 original 5×3 is 15 then add 2, 15+2=17

Answer 2

Answer: Rental value of riding for 2 hours would be same.

Explanation:

Let the number of hours be 'x'.

Entrance fee = $8

Cost per hour = $2

Our equation becomes,

`2x+8`

In case of other park,

Entrance fee = $2

Cost per hour = $5

So, our equation becomes,

`2+5x`

According to question, we have

`2x+8=5x+2\\\\8-2=5x-2x\\\\6=3x\\\\x=(6)/(3)\\\\x=2`

Hence, Rental value of riding for 2 hours would be same.
