a car rental agency charges $150 per week plus $0.10 per mile to rent a car.
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "a. write an equation that expresses the weekly cost to rent the car, y, in terms of the number of miles driven during the week, x.
\n" ); document.write( "y = 150 + 0.10x
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b. how many miles did you drive during the week if the weekly cost to rent the car was $250?
\n" ); document.write( "Solve::
\n" ); document.write( "250 = 150+0.10x
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "100 = 0.10x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 100/0.1 = 100*10 = 1000 miles\r
