Question

Adele Jones is on a business trip and plans to rent a subcompact car from Speedy

Rent-A-Car. Her company has given her a budget of $60 per day for car rental. Write
an equation to determine how many miles she can drive the car for if a subcompact
rents for $14.95 for a day plus $0.10 per mile.
A. 0.10+ 14.95m=60
B. 14.95 + 0.10m=60
C. 14.95d + 0.10m=60
D. 14.95d +60=0.10

Answer 1

B is the correct answer. Since the total is $60, you need to multiply the .10 by the number of miles and you have a flat rate fee of 14.95
