daisy and eva have $115 total to spend at a park. it cost $7.50 each to get into the park and $25 per hour to rent one jet ski what is the maximum amount of time saiy and eva can rent to jet skis
Let x be the number of hours Daisy and Eva can rent the jet skis for.
The cost to get into the park is $7.50 each, so the total cost for both of them to get in is $7.50 + $7.50 = $15.
After paying for entry into the park, they will have $115 - $15 = $100 left to spend on jet ski rentals.
The cost to rent one jet ski for x hours is $25x. Therefore, the cost to rent two jet skis for x hours is $25x * 2 = $50x.
We know that they have a total of $100 to spend on jet ski rentals, so we can write the equation:
$50x ≤ $100
Dividing both sides by $50, we get:
x ≤ 2
Therefore, Daisy and Eva can rent the jet skis for a maximum of 2 hours.
