Question

A rental car company charges $15/day for a rental car plus 20¢ for every mile driven that day. Which equation models the relationship between R, the cost for one day of renting the car and d, the number of miles driven that day?

Answer 1

R=15d+0.20R=15d+0.20 is the answer

Answer 2

R = 15 + 0.20d

Explanation:

A rental car company charges $15 per day as a rental plus 20 cents per mile driven.

So the expression will be modeled for one day of renting a car will be

R = 15 + 0.20d

where R = rental of a day

d = number of miles driven in a day.
