Question

A rental car company charges $48.75 per day to rent a car and $0.14 for every mile

driven. Jack wants to rent a car, knowing that:
He plans to drive 125 miles.
He has at most $310 to spend.
.
.

Answer 1

He will be able to afford it, first do 125•$0.14, and get 17.5, then I add that to the daily charge of $48.75 and I get $66.25 if he were to rent a car for a day and drive 125 miles.

So the answer is he can afford it, since it only costs $66.25.
