Felipe rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $16.95, and there was an additional charge of 76 cents for each mile driven. Felipe had to pay $135.51 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

Answer:Fee as a function of miles:

f(m) = 16.95 + 0.92m

140.23 = 16.95 + 0.92m

0.92m = 140.23 - 16.95

0.92m = 123.28

m = 123.28/0.92

m = 134 miles
