A family decides to rent a canoe for an entire day. The canoe rental rate is $50 for the first three hours and then 20$ for each additional hour. Suppose the family can spend $110 for the canoe rental. What is the maximum number of hours the family can rent the canoe? IF we subtract the $50 for the first 3 hours, we get: 110 - 50 = 60 remaining Each additional hour is 20, so the max number of hours we can rent the canoe is $60/20 = 3 hours additional plus the original 3 hours is [B]6 hours[/B]

DeAndre is a spelunker (someone who explores caves). One day DeAndre is exploring a cave that has a series of ladders going down into the depths. Every ladder is exactly 10 feet tall, and there is no other way to descend or ascend (the other paths in the cave are flat). DeAndre starts at 186 feet in altitude, and reaches a maximum depth of 86 feet in altitude.Write an equation for DeAndre's altitude, using x to represent the number of ladders DeAndre used (hint: a ladder takes DeAndre down in altitude, so the coefficient should be negative). Set up a function A(x) for altitude, where x is the number of ladders used. Each ladder takes DeAndre down 10 feet, so this would be -10x. And DeAndre starts at 186 feet, so we'd have: [B]A(x) = 186 - 10x[/B]
