A car rents for $30 per day plus 18cents per mile. You are on a budget of $75. what mileage would allow you to stay within your budget?
.
Cost = "per day cost" + "mileage charge"
.
If m = miles driven in a single day
.
75 = 30 + .18m
45 = .18m
45/.18 = m
250 miles = m
.
Conclusion: The renter can drive NO more than 250 miles per day to stay within budget.
