Question

Atlanta rents bikes for $12 plus $5 per hour. Calvin paid $47 to rent a bike. For how many hours did he
rent the bike?

Answer 1

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's $12 + $5(h) = 47, take away 12 automatically as this value doesn't depend on the hours. 47-12 is 35 so divide by 5 to get the hours. 35/5 is 7 so he rode 7 hours.

Answer 2

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

(47-12)/5
