Question

Jim needs to rent a car.A rental company changes$21.00 per day to rent a car and $0.10 for every mile driven
•He will travel 250 miles
•He has $115.00 to spend

Answer 1

Answer:Jim can stay for 4 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim is incorrect since he cannot stay for 5 days and over, and he can only stay for approximately 4 days.

Work:

                                                 KEY: / = Fraction

21d+.10(250)≤115

21d+25≤115

21d+25-25≤115-25

21d≤90

21d/21 ≤ 90/21

d=4.3=4

So Jim can only stay for 4 days and not 5.                                                  By the way , @jackierome1234, please change your answer it’s incorrect. He couldn’t have stayed for only 2 days. Make sure to check your work next time.;D

Hope I helped. :D
