Question

scott wants to rent a boat and spend at most $79. The boat costs 8 per hour, and Scott has a discount coupon for $9 off. What are the possible numbers of hours Scott could rent the boat?

Answer 1

11 hours

Explanation:

Using the $79 dollars, Scott can get up to 9 hours with the boat. Scott will be left with $7, adding the $7 to the $9 coupon, Scott will then have $16 which can give Scott an additional 2 hours summing the total hours up to 11 hours Scott can rent the boat for.
