Question

Ronald wants to rent a car to take a trip and has a budget of $60. There is a fixed rental fee of $25 and a daily fee of $5. Write an inequality that would be used to solve for the maximum number of days for which Ronald can rent the car on his budget.

Answer 1

25 + 5x ≤ 60

Explanation:

The previous answer was correct but incase you were confused because of the symbol this is the same answer.

Answer 2

5x + 25 < 60 will be the inequality.

Explanation:

Ronald wants to rent a car to a trip and has a budget of $60.

Fixed rental fees of the car is $25 and a daily fees of $5.

Now we have to write an inequality for which Ronald can rent the car on his budget.

Let total number of days Ronald can rent the car = x days

So the total rent of the car will be (5x + 25)

This rent should be less than $60.

So 5x + 25 < 60 will be the inequality to solve for the maximum number of days for which he can rent the car on his budget.
