A) 30 - 0.12 = 18x
B) 18 + 0.12x = 30
C) 18 - 0.12x = 30
D) 18x + 0.12 = 30
please help​

Answer 1

1 B is the answer for sure

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

It's B because Alex wants to spend exactly $30, and since he has to pay $18 as a charge and $0.12 per mile, you would have to add those two together to get $30. Since you're spending money per mile and the charger, you have to add them.
