Esmerelda rents a car from a company that rents cars by the hour. She has to pay an initial fee of $52 and then they charge her $8 per hour. She has $144 Available to spend on a car rental. What is the greatest number of hours for which she can rent the car?

11 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract 144-52= 92. After the initial fee, she has 92 dollars to spend on the car. Then, you divide 92 by 8 because it costs 8 dollars an hour. And this gets you 11.5 which you would have round down because she can't pay for the extra hour. She does not have enough money.
