Answer:  Equation: 17.95 + 0.18x = 40            

 122.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rental fee is $17.95  then it will not change in any situation plus 18 cents per mile  driven, then we can represent that by the expression ,  

17.95 + 0.18x  where x is the number of miles driven.

She has $40 so we will set the expression to equal $40.

17.95 + 0.18x = 40     Now to solve for x subtract 17.95 from both sides

-17.95               -17.95

 0.18x = 22.05  Divide both sides by 0.18

x = 122.5

First you need to put everything as 1 unit. I'll convert both to fractions for now.
75% = 3/4

680/1 * 3/4

Cross Multiply

Simplify

510

The mayor received 510 votes.
