Plzz for all of this I will give you 700 points

Answer 1

Idk what an inequality is, but if you want i can tell the steps to find the number of days jim can rent the car:

250x$0. 10= $25(money needed to travel 250 miles)

$115-$25=$90(money remaining to jim to rent the car)

$90/$21=4(days jim can rent the car)
