Question

Write the correct equation for the following statement and then solve for the given number of

miles.

You decide to rent a limo for prom. The rate is $200 plus $5 per mile
traveled. Write an equation to calculate your total cost (c) at the end of
the evening for a given number of miles (m).

If you travel 45 miles what will be your total bill at the end
of the evening?

Answer 1

$425

Explanation:

Equation can be written as follows:

c = 200 + 5m

Plug 45 in for m to get this:

c = 200 + 5(45)

Simplify!

c = 200 + 225

c = 425
