To go skating, it will cost you $5 to rent the skates and $7 per hour to skate.

1.) Write an expression for the following word problem. Use x to represent the number of hours you skate.

2.) How much would it cost you to skate for 8 hours?

1.) 7x + 5   or 5 + 7x

Colleen has a prepaid phone card with $90 on it. It costs her  $0.50 for each minute she spends on the phone.

 1.) Write an expression for the following word problem. Use x to represent the number of minutes on the phone.

2.) How much would be left on her card if she spent 17 minutes on the phone?  

 1.) 90 - 0.50x    or     -0.50x + 90

2.) 90 - 0.50(17) 

      90 - 8.5 = $81.50 left
