Write the correct equation for the following statement.

You decide to rent a limo for prom. The rate is $250 plus $6 per mile
traveled. Write an equation to calculate your total cost (c) at the end of
the evening for a given number of miles (m).
250+6m

If you travel 45 miles what will be your total bill at the end

Answer:

Easy;

Substitute m (miles) for 45.

250+6(45)

(6 dollars per mile, times 45 miles, plus the 250 flat rate)

250+270

520

So you would be charged 520 dollars total at the end of the evening.

Hope this helped!
