Step-by-step explanation:

$15 initial fee. $2 per hour. $35 limit.

35 - 15 = 20

After the initial fee, he has $20 left.

20 ÷ 2 = 10

He can rent the metal detector for 10 hours.

The maximum time he can rent the metal detector is 10 hours if he has only $35 to spend.

What is inequality?

The equation which is not in pure equal to form is known as inequality.

How to form an inequality?

Jay has to pay 15$ fixed and $2 per hour to rent the metal detector. So the inequality becomes as under:

15+2h<=35

2h<20

h<10

Hence he can only take for 10 hours maximum  on rent.
