Answer:

5 hours; 4x+10=32

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 4 multiplied by the amount of hours

10 = the cost for the lock

so y = 4x+10

In this case y= 32 so plug it in

4x+10=32

    -10  -10

4x=22

/4   /4

x=5.5

So assuming you can only rent whole hours, it would be 5 hours

Hope this helps.
