Answer: Hong drove the truck for 294 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let m represent the number of miles for which he drove the truck.
There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile driven. It means that the expression for the cost of driving the truck for m miles in a day is
20.95 + 0.9m
Hong had to pay $285.55 when he returned the truck. It means that
20.95 + 0.9m = 285.55
0.9m = 285.55 - 20.95
0.9m = 264.6
m = 264.6/0.9
m = 294 miles

Work Shown:
The assumption is that no replacements are made for each selection.
5 red, 6 blue, 8 green
5+6+8 = 19 total
A = P(3 red) = (5/19)*(4/18)*(3/17) = 10/969
B = P(3 blue) = (6/19)*(5/18)*(4/17) = 20/969
C = P(3 green) = (8/19)*(7/18)*(6/17) = 56/969
D = P(3 all same color)
D = A+B+C
D = 10/969 + 20/969 + 56/969
D = (10+20+56)/969
D = 86/969
D = 0.08875
