A rental company charge $65 a day and 20 cent a mile for renting a truck. Michael rented a truck for 3 day, and he bill came to $275. He drive 400 mile.
In the given question we have to find how many mile did he drive.
From the given question, a rental company charge $65 a day and 20 cent a mile for renting a truck.
Michael rented a truck for 3 day, and he bill came to $275.
The rental company charges for three days renting
$(65×3)=$195
Also there is a expense of a mile for renting the truck is
20 cents =$0.20
Let Michel drove x miles in 3 days.
Therefore total bill in 3 days is $(0.20x+195).
According to the question,
0.20x+195 = 275
Subtract 195 on both side we get
0.20x = 80
Divide by 0.20 on both side we get
x = 400
Hence, he drive 400 mile.
