Maria plans to rent a boat. the boat rental costs $60
per hour, and she will also have to pay for a water
safety course that costs $10. maria wants to spend no
more than $230 for the rental and the course. if the
boat rental is available only for a whole number of
hours, what is the maximum number of hours for
which maria can rent the boat?

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
