Question

Jeremy is taking a photography class, but he doesn't own a camera. The class organizers will rent him a camera for $6 per day. Jeremy can spend up to $50 for the class, but he has to pay $15 to register for the class as well as rent the camera. The number of days, d, that Jeremy can rent the camera is represented by the inequality 6d + 15 < 50. Select the number of days Jeremy can rent the camera with the money he has.

Answer 1

Explanation:

17

Answer 2

The number of days that Jeremy can rent the camera is any value less than 5.83. Since d represents an integer value (the number of days), the number of days Jeremy can rent the camera is 5 days.

Explanation:

To solve this inequality, you need to find the value of d that makes the inequality true. You can do this by isolating the d term on one side of the inequality. To do this, you need to subtract 15 from both sides of the inequality:

6d + 15 < 50

6d < 35

Then, divide both sides of the inequality by 6:

6d/6 < 35/6

d < 35/6

d < 5.83
