The expression that represents the situation is 0.65 x = 18.2

The tool used for 28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • A tool rental cost $0.65 per minute
  • If the total bill for the rental was $18.20

Assume that the tool rent for x minutes

∵ The tool rental cost is $0.65 per minute

∵ The number of minutes is x

∵ The total bill for the rental = $18.20

∴ 0.65 x = 18.20

The expression that represents the situation is 0.65 x = 18.2

Solve the equation to find x

∵ 0.65 x = 18.20

- Divide both sides by 0.65

∴ x = 28

The tool used for 28 minutes
