A bike shop rents bikes for $4.50 per hour, plus a $7.50 insurance charge. For how many hours can Peter rent a bike if he has $30?

With $30, Peter can afford 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Insurance Charge = $7.5

Charges = $4.5 per hour

Required

Determine the number of hours $30 can afford

First, we need to determine the equation.

Total Charges = Charges per hour + Insurance Charge

Substitute values for Charges per hour and Insurance Charge

Total Charges = 4.5 per hour + 7.5

Let the number of hours be n;

So,

Total Charges = 4.5n + 7.5

To calculate Peter's; substitute 30 for total charges

Subtract 7.5 from both sides

Divide both sides by 4.5

Hence;

With $30, Peter can afford 5 hours
