Question

29. The cost of renting a bike is $10 to take the bike and $4 for every hour it spends in our possession. The final sum we paid is $30. How many hours did we rent the bike?

Write the equation ​

Answer 1

5 hours

Explanation:

Answer 2

The equation is 4x + 10 = 30

then you solve for it and get that x = 5

Explanation:

x is my number of hours the bike was in our possession

we solve for x

4x + 10 = 30

first subtract 10 from both sides

so now we have 4x = 20

now divide by 4 from both sides

now you have x = 5 and thats your answer
