Question

A rental car company charges $30.05 per day to rent a car and $0.10 for every mile driven. Anthony wants to rent a car, knowing that: He plans to drive 75 miles. • He has at most $120 to spend. What is the maximum number of days that Anthony can rent the car while staying within his budget?​

Answer 1

Three days at the most.

Explanation:

First you must see how much money he spends on driving, 75 x 0.10 = 7.5. Subtract that from 120 to get 112.5. He has that much money left. Now you will divide 112.5 by 30.05. 112.5/30.05 = 3.74376039933. Simplify to get 3.

(also, he will have 22.35 dollars left)
