Question

A car rental company charges $0.10 per mile plus an initial fee of $120 for the rental of a midsize sedan. If Lawrence rents a vehicle and has $200, what is the maximum number of miles he can drive

Answer 1

Answer:

800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation, where x is the number of miles driven:

0.10x + 120 = 200

Then, solve for x:

0.10x = 80

x = 800

So, the maximum number of miles he can drive is 800 miles
