Write and solve two step equations

Speedy Boat Rental charges a $15 deposit fee plus $2 for each hour of use to rent a paddle boat.  Write an equation to find out how many hours, h, they rented the Boat if the total cost was $33.

• h = 2(9) + 15
• 33 = 15h + 2
• h = 15(9) + 2
• 33 = 2h + 15

Pizzazz Publications is having some books printed. The printer charges $800 plus $5 per book. What equation could help me find how many books can be printed for $4,000?

• 800 + 5x = 4000
• 800x + 5 = 4000
• 4000 + 5x= 800
• 800 + 5 = 4000

Write a scenario that matches:

Tom has 15 apples. He buys 5 more apples every day. How many days will it take him to collect 50 apples?

• 15 + 5 = 20

• 15 + 5x = 50

• 15 + 35 = 50

An airplane is at 20,000ft. It descends 15 ft per second. Determine the number of seconds it will take for the plane to reach 13,700ft. Which equation represents the problem.

• 14,700-15s = 20,000

• 20,000-15s = 14,700

• 20,000+ 15s = 14,700

• 15s - 20,000 = 14,700
