Question

13. During a long weekend, Devon paid a total of x dollars for a rental car so he could visit his family. He rented the car for 4 days at a rate of $36 per day. There was an additional charge of $0.20 per mile after the first 200 miles driven. If he drove 280 miles, how much did he pay to use the rental car?

Answer 1

The answer is $160. You would multiply the rate per day by the amount of days. $(36 x 4) Then multiply the additional charge and the miles after the first 200 miles. (0.2x80) Now you add them together and get 160.
