Given Data:

The initial rental fee is: $25

The rent per hour rate is: $10

The paid amount is: $95

The expression to calculate the total hour spend is,


\begin{gathered} \frac{Paid\text{ amount- Initial rent}}{rent\text{ per hour}}=(95-25)/(10) \\ =(70)/(10) \\ =7 \end{gathered}

Thus, Curry can rent the golf cart for 7 hours.
