Question

Julie is a member of a swim club. The swim club

charges a monthly fee of $15 plus $0.50 per hour
to use the pool. Julie spent $35 in August to use
the pool. How many hours did Julie use the pool
in August?

Answer 1

Answer: 40 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

As stated in the question the total amount spent in the month of august is $35.

First of all you have to subtract 15 out of the entire amount spent so that you can start calculating how many hours did Julie use the pool.

(35-15) = 20 (divide the answer with 0.50)

(20/0.50) = 40 (We have to divide to get the amount of hours she spent in pool)
