At keller's bike Rentals, it costs $40 to rent for 9 hours. How many dollars does it cost per hour of bike use?

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

i think you have got to set up a proportion

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

40 dollars for 9 hours x dollars for 1 hour

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

40 x 1 = 40 9x = 40

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

does this make sense? im not sure if it's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cost per hour means cost / hours just like miles per gallon means miles/gallons So... you simply take $40/9 and that is your answer and that is the answer for 1 hour.
