Answer:
the required equation
11x + 50 = 88.50
It cost $3.50 to rent a snowboard for an hour.
Explanation:
as given in the problem
cost per hour is x
that cost of one hour is $x.
Total hours Jared rented the snowboard = no of hours rented on saturday + no of hours rented on sunday
Total hours Jared rented the snowboard = 5 hours + 6 hours = 11 hours
total cost for x hour rent if cost of 1 hour rent is $x = 11*cost of 1 hour
total cost for x hour rent if cost of 1 hour rent is $x = 11*$x = $11x
Amount paid by Jared for pass = $50
Total cost incurred by Jarred = Amount paid by Jared for pass + total cost for x hour rent for snowboard
Total cost incurred by Jarred = $50 + $11x
given that In
total he paid $88.50 for the weekend
Total cost incurred by Jarred = $50 + $11x = total he paid = $88.50
Thus, the required equation
11x + 50 = 88.50
solving it
11x = 88.50 - 50 = 38.50
x = 38.50/11 = 3.5
Thus, cost per hour = x = $3.50
Thus, it cost $3.50 to rent a snowboard for an hour.
