Answer 2

`y=21x-180`

Explanation:

The cost of the vehicle is $21 per day. He gives the office manager $180 up front.

The upfront is a type of advance payment that is deducted from the final amount.

Let x represents the number of days and y represents the total cost of the rental.

So, the correct equation here is :

`y=21x-180`
