Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Rental cost for one day = $45.00

Additional costs per mile = $0.79 x 68

collision waiver cost =$25.00

Diesel fuel cost = $27.50

Total cost will be = $45.00 + $53.72 +$25 + $27.50

Total cost =$151. 22

cost per mile = total cost/ total miles

=$151.22/68 miles

=$2.22 per mile
