Zachary can spend no more than $98 per day to rent a car. A car rents for $42 per day plus $0.20 per mile. What is the maximum number of miles that he can drive the car?
Total Cost= $0.20x+$42.00 Total Cost= $98.00 $98.00=$0.20x+$42.00 Subtract $42.00 from each side of the equation $56.00=$0.20x Divide both sides by $0.20 x=280 miles
Zachary could drive a maximum of 280 miles per day that he rents the car.
