Lisa wants to rent a boat and spend less than $52. The boat costs $7 per hour, and Lisa has a discount coupon for $4 off. What are the possible numbers of hours Lisa could rent the boat?
Calculate discounted cost:
Discounted cost = Full Cost - Coupon
Discounted cost = 52 - 7
Discounted cost = 45
Since price equals rate * hours (h), and we want the inequality (less than) we have:
7h < 52
Using our inequality calculator, we see that:
h < 7.42
Calculate discounted cost:
Discounted cost = Full Cost - Coupon
