The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Omar rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $17.95, and there was an additional charge of 98 cents for each mile driven. Omar had to pay $23 when he returned the truck. For how many mile did he drive the truck?

Answer: Omar drove the truck for 5.15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Base fee = 17.95 $

Additional charge per mile = 98 cents = 0.98 $     ( 100cents = 1$)

Now Omar payed = 22 $

Let the miles he travelled = x

Now , [tex]17.95+0.98\times x=23[/tex]

Solvimg for x :

[tex]x=5.15miles[/tex]

Thus Omar drove the truck for 5.15 miles
