Question

A. What would be the cost of the Standard Daily Rate plus Mileage plan?

Answer 1

Answer:

Part a) $\ 190$

Part b) $\ 315$

Part c) Standard Daily Rate plus Mileage plan

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) What would be the cost of the Standard Daily Rate plus Mileage plan?

Let

y ----> the total cost

x ----> the number of kilometers

we have that

For a Luxury car

$y=70+0.30x$

For x=400 km

substitute

$y=70+0.30(400)$

$y=\ 190$

Part b) What would be the cost of the Unlimited Mileage plan?

we know that

The Unlimited Mileage plan for a Luxury car is $105 per day (see the table)

The trip are three days

so

To find the total cost multiply $105 by 3

$3(\ 105)=\ 315$

Part c) Which is the better plan?

Compare

$\ 190 < \ 315$

therefore

For this trip the better plan is the Standard Daily Rate plus Mileage plan
