Answer 1

Answer:

If your cost Is $66.00, how many miles were you charged for traveling?

• y = cost = $66

$66=46+0.25x\\66-46=0.25x\\20=0.25x\\x=\frac{20}{0.25} =80$80 miles

You have a max of $100 to spend on a car rental. what would be the maximum number of miles you could Travel?

• y = cost = $100

$100=46+0.25x\\100-46=0.25x\\54=0.25x\\x=\frac{54}{0.25} =216$216 miles
