Answer:
Inequality is and the solution is 5 whole hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Rental charge of bike for first hour = $60
Additional charge per hour = $25
Let h be the no. of additional hours
So, Additional charge = 25h
So, total charge = 60+25h
Since we are given that Michael wants to spend less than $200 on his bike rental for the day.
So, inequality becomes:
Solving inequality
So, 5 whole hours
So, Option D is true
Hence inequality is and the solution is 5 whole hours
