Question

A vacation resort rents SCUBA equipment to certified divers. The resort charges an up-front fee of $25 and another fee of $12.50 an hour. How much is it if you rent the SCUBA equipment for 45 minutes

Answer 1

34.38

Explanation:

45 minutes is 45/60 or .75 of an hour

The up front cost plus the hours times the hourly cost

The cost is 25 + .75 * 12.50

25 +9.375

34.375

Rounding to the nearest cent

34.38
