Answer:

C = 1.5 rental/hour

Explanation:

Given that,

Felicia And Marie of rented a canoe at the lake for a total cost of $8.25.

They had the canoe for 5 hours 30 minutes.

We need to find the cost of the canoe rental per hour. It can be calculated by dividing total cost by total time as follows :


C=(8.25)/(5\ h\ 30\ min)\\\\=(8.25)/(5.5\ h)\\\\=1.5\ \text{rental/hour}

So, the cost of the canoe is 1.5 rental per hour.
