Question

a family rents a truck to move from buffalo to chicago. the rental has a base cost of 49.95 plus the additional 1.19 per mile driven. the family also pays for gas which cost 3.89 per gallon. the truck's average gas mileage is 18 miles per gallon. what is the total cost of the move?

Answer 1

$75.26

Explanation:

Base cost = $49.95

Total mile cost = 1.19*18 = $21.42

Gas cost = $3.89

Total cost = $(49.95 + 21.42 + 3.98) = $75.26
