Question

Alex rents a car for one day the charge is $28 plus $0.50 per mile Alex wants to spend exactly $30 how many miles can he drive

Answer 1

• 4 miles

Explanation:

Let the miles is x:

• 28 + 0.5x = 30
• 0.5x = 30 - 28
• 0.5x = 2
• x = 2/0.5
• x = 4

It seems incorrect but Alex can drive 4 miles
