EDIT

Answer: x≤6

Explanation: the total number of hours (x) is less than or equal to 6 hours.

Because if you check my math below where I misread the question and gave a function... LOL

You will see that 7 hours would be too many.

So very sorry for the initial confusion!!

Answer: f(x)=12X-15

Step-by-step explanation:

X represents the number of hours.

F(1)= 12(1)-15 = $-3 or free. In real life I'm sure there'd be a requirement that you rent at least 2 hours to get the discount
