A rental company charges $41 per day and $.33 per mile. If a truck was rented for 5 days and the total was $395.74, how far was the truck driven?
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "Let the number of miles driven be \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "Cost = 5(41) + 0.33x
\n" ); document.write( "395.74 = 205 + 0.33x
\n" ); document.write( "0.33x = 190.74
\n" ); document.write( "x= 578 miles
\n" ); document.write( "Cheers,
