Answer: [tex]\bold{13\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{hours}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Parabola Skate Rental: 4.50x + 35
Arc Hawk Skate Rental: 5.25x + 25
If you want to know when their cost will be the same, set the equations equal to each other.
5.25x + 25 = 4.50x + 35
0.75x + 25 = 35 subtracted 4.50x from both sides
0.75x = 10 subtracted 25 from both sides
[tex]x=\dfrac{1000}{75}[/tex] divided both sides by 0.75
x = [tex]13\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] simplified the fraction
