A truck rental company rents a moving truck for one day by charging $39 plus $.60 per mile. Write a linear equation that relates the cost C in dollars of renting the truck to the number x of miles driven. What is the cost of renting the truck if the truck is driven 110 miles? What about 220 miles?

C = 0.60x + 39 is equation

C = 0.60(110) + 39
C = 66 + 39
C = 105

C = 0.60(220) + 39
C = 132 + 39
C = 171

hope this helps
