car rental agency advertised renting car for $27.95 per day and $0.28 per mile. If Brad rents this car for 3 days, how many whole miles can he drive on a $150 Budget? miles (Round down to the nearest whole mile.)

Respuesta :

Let x represent the number of miles

For 3 days rent, he will pay = 3 x $26.95 = $80.85

The number miles = $0.31 × x

Thus

[tex]80.85+0.31x=100[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 0.31x=100-80,85 \\ 0.31x=19.15 \\ x=\frac{19.15}{0.31} \\ x=61.77 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the whole miles can he drive on a $100 Budget is 61 miles
