A car rental agency advertised renting a luxury, full-size car for $34.95 per day and $0.29 per mile. If you rent this car for 4 days, how many whole miles can you drive if you only have $200 to spend.

Let

y ------> total cost

x -----> number of miles

d -----> number of days

so

The linear equation that represents this situation is

y=34.95d+0.29x

For y=$200 and d=4

substitute

200=34.95(4)+0.29x

0.29x=200-34.95(4)

0.29x=60.2

x=207.59 miles

therefore

the answer is 208 miles
