Question

Janet rented a golf cart for $15, plus $16 per hour. She spent $111 to rent the golf cart. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours, h, Janet rented the golf cart?

A.
16h – 15 = 111

B.
16h + 15 = 111

C.
15h – 16 = 111

D.
15h + 16 = 111

Answer 1

B. 16h + 15 = 111

Explanation:

The equation should represent the initial cost plus the amount per hour (h) to equal $111 (the total amount spent).

Equation: 16h + 15 = 111

Answer 2

B, h is represented as a constant (hourly) which would be next to 16, and adding up to a total of 111
