Question 887747

If you rent a canoe for 3 hours, you will pay $45. The hourly rate for renting a canoe is $10 per hour. Write a linear equation to find the total cost C of renting the canoe for h hours.
<pre>
At $10 per hour, 3 hours cost $30, but since the total 3-hour cost was $45, there is an additional charge of $15.
Therefore, to rent the canoe for h hours, the cost, or {{{highlight_green(highlight_green(C(h) = 10h + 15))}}}
