Renting canoes on a lake cost $22 per hour plus a flat fee of $10 for insurance you have $98 write and solve an equation to find the number of hours you can rent a canoe

y = 22x + 10 is the flat equation, but to find hours, 98 = 22x + 10 (You can rent for 4 hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

All you need to look at is what the cost is increasing/decreasing by, that is the slope. The base fee is 10 dollars. The base fee is always going to be the y-intercept. Since you have 98 dollars, make the equation equal to 98. 98 = 22x + 10, that solves down to x = 4, so you can rent for 4 hours.
