Oceanside Bike Rental Shop charges 13 dollars plus 8 dollars an hour for renting a bike. Tim paid 45 dollars to rent a bike. How many hours did he pay to have the bike checked out?​

Explanation:

Shop charges =13

Many left for renting bike = 45-13 =$32

If renting for 1hr cost $8

then renting for X Hrs will cost $32

1/X =8/32 cross multiplying

8X= 32

X= 32÷8= 4hrs
