It costs $7.15 to rent a kayak for 1 hour at a local state park. The price per hour stays the same for up to 5 hours of rental. After 5 hours, the cost decreases to $5.75 per hour.

How much would it cost to rent a kayak for 6 hours?

Answer:

$41.50

Explanation:

  1. Multiply 7.15 by 5. This represents how much it costs for the first 5 hours.
  2. Add 5.75 to the product. This is the extra hour with the reduced price.
