Question

The number of miles you can travel in one week for $475 is ??

Answer 1

Let x be the number of miles driven, then the cost of rent the car in dollars is:

`A(x)=240+0.25x`

Setting A(x)=475 and solving for x we get:

`\begin{gathered} 475=240+0.25x \\ 235=0.25x \\ x=940 \end{gathered}`

Therefore the number of miles you can travel in one week for $475 is 940.
