Answer:
35 + 15h= 95
4 Hour
Explanation:
Given:
Gabriella went skiing. She paid $35 to rent skis and $15 an hour to ski.
To Find:
If she paid a total of $95, how many hours did she ski? Write an equation to represent the situation and solve it.
Solve:
Given that if she paid a total of $95.
Thus, if the total = $95.
We are finding how many hours did she ski which means
Solving for Hour .
Let Hour = H
Since, she paid $35 to rent skis and $15 an hour to ski,
which means
$15h
Therefore, we have:
35 + 15h = 95
Now we have to solve the equation:
Subtract 35 from both sides
35 + 15h = 95
-35 - 35
---------------------
15h = 60
Now divide both sides by 15
15h/15 = 60/15
h = 4
Hence, Gabriella ski 4 hours.
