Question

The Logan family is renting a beach house from Aqua Coast Beach Rentals. Mr. Logan called the rental agency ahead of time to get the total cost for 9 days. The rental agent explained that since the family plans to stay during the off-season, there will be a one-time discount of $25 applied to their rental cost. The Logans will pay $920 in all.
Which equation can you use to find d, how much the agency charges per day?

Answer 1

Let d be the amount the agency charges per day.
The rental cost for 9 days would be 9d.
Considering the one-time discount of $25, the equation to find d would be:
9d - 25 = 920.

How much does the agency charge per day?

Answer 3

To find the agency's charge per day, let's consider the equation for the total cost:

9d - $25 = $920

To solve for d (the agency's charge per day), we can isolate d on one side of the equation:

9d = $920 + $25
9d = $945

Now, dividing both sides of the equation by 9:

d = $945 / 9

So, the agency charges $105 per day.
