A bike rental costs $8 per hour. Desiree has a coupon for 2 free hours. To find how many hours she can rent with $40, Desiree sets up the equation 8(x – 2) = 40, where x is the number of hours.

Respuesta :

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

8x = 56

8x + 16 = 40

x = 3

8x = 24

x = 7

8x – 16 = 40

8(x – 2) = 40
