Question

Deshaun rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 80 cents for each mile driven. Deshaun had to pay $250.55 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

Answer 1

287 miles

Explanation:

20.95+ .80x =250.55

250.55-20.95=229.6

.80x=229.6

229.6/.80=x

x=287 miles
