A photo booth charges a $500 fee for two hours at a party, plus $50 per additional hour. Cindy doesn't want to spend more than $700 on the photo booth rental. What is the maximum number of additional hours (beyond the first two) that Cindy can rent the photo booth for her party?

To calculate the maximum number of additional hours Cindy can rent the photo booth for, we first subtract the initial 2 hours from her budget of $700:
$700 - $500 = $200
Then, we divide the remaining amount by the additional cost per hour:
$200 / $50 = 4
This means that Cindy can rent the photo booth for 4 additional hours (beyond the initial 2 hours), for a total of 6 hours.
