0.55m 5 gives the total cost in dollars T for renting a jet ski for m minutes. What is the cost for renting a jet ski for 35
minutes?

Answer 1

19.25

Explanation:

t = .55m

t = .55(35)

t = 19.25

I am not sure what you mean by 5 give the total cost in dollars T. I am not sure where the comes from.

Answer 2

$24.25

Explanation:

Given equation:

`T=0.55m+5`

where:

• T = total cost of renting a jet ski (in dollars)
• m = number of minutes

To find the total cost of renting a jet ski for 35 minutes, substitute m = 35 into the given equation and solve for T:

`\implies T=0.55(35)+5`

`\implies T=19.25+5`

`\implies T=24.25`

Therefore, the total cost of renting a jet ski for 35 minutes is $24.25.
