A car rents for $40 per day plus 18¢ per mile. You are on a daily budge of $67. What mileage will allow you to stay within your budget?

Sagot :

Out of your $67 for the day, $40 of it goes to the rental before you even drive it out of the lot.  That leaves you $27 a day for mileage.

$27 / $0.18 per mile = 150 miles per day, tops.
