A rental car company charges 23.95 per day to rent a car and $0.08 for every mile driven. Nathan wants to rent a car, knowing that:He plans to drive 400 miles.He has at most $440 to spend.Which inequality can be used to determine x, the maximum number of days Nathan can afford to rent for while staying within his budget?

Answer

Explanation

The total charge on the car = (Charge based on number of days) + (Charge based on the number of miles)

Charge based on number of days = (23.95) (x) = (23.95x) dollars

Charge based on the number of miles = (0.08) (400) = 32 dollars

(The total charge on the car) ≤ 440

23.95x + 32 ≤ 440

23.95x + 32 - 32 ≤ 440 - 32

23.95x ≤ 408

Divide both sides by 23.95

(23.95x/23.95) ≤ (408/23.95)

x ≤ 17.04

Hope this Helps!!!
