Question 1029463: Writing a let statement for:
Nbida's bike rental bikes for $19 plus $5 per hour. Ming paid $44 to rent a bike. For how many hours did she rent the bike for? Answer by sheffydavid@gmail.com(2) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Rate = $19 + $5 per hour
Let the number of hours be x.
Then, $19 + $5x = $44
=> 19 + 5x = 44
=> 5x = 44 - 19
=> 5x = 25
=> x = 5
Ming rented the cycle for 5 hours.
