A rental car costs $15 a day plus 25 cents for each mile driven. Which
expression shows the cost to rent a car for 1 week and drive 200 miles?
A. (15.25 x 7) + 200
B. (0.25 x 7) + (15 x 200)
C. (15 x 7) + (0.25 x 200)
D. 15 + (0.25 x 200

Respuesta :

The expression that shows the cost to rent a car for 1 week and drive 200 miles is (15 × 7) + (0.25 × 200)

The problem can be modelled to a linear equation.

Linear equation

Linear equation can be represented in slope intercept form as follows:

y = mx + b

where

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Therefore,

y = total cost of the rental

x = mile driven

Hence,

y = 0.25x + 15

Therefore, the expression that shows the cost to rent a car for 1 week and drive 200 miles is as follows:

  • (15 × 7) + (0.25 × 200)
