Question

At the Wild Thing Zoo, you can rent a motorized cart to tour the grounds for a $4 initial charge and $4 per hour. An equation that represents the total cost y for x hours is y = 4 + 4x. At Safari Zoo, you can rent the same cart for a $3 inital charge and $5 for hour. An equation that represents the total cost y for x hours is y = 3 + 5x. For how many hours is the total charge the same? please help

Answer choices:
A. 2 hours
B. 3 hours
C. 1 hour
D. 4 hours

Answer 1

We have to find after how many hours they will charge the same amount/fee.

So for that have to equate both of the equations given.

Answer 2

y = 4 + 4x AND y = 3 + 5x

4+4x = 3 + 5x

Solve for x.
