Answer:

  (a)  160 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of miles Mrs Martin drives. Her rental cost is ...

  c = 36 +0.15m

She wants to find m when that is equal to $60.

  60 = 36 +0.15m

  24 = 0.15m . . . . . . . subtract 36

  24/0.15 = m = 160 . . . . divide by the coefficient of m

Mrs. Martin can afford to drive up to 160 miles.
