Question

Mathematics The table shows the cost of renting a van. If Miguel budgeted $75, how many miles could he drive the van and maintain his budget?
Table:
Flat Fee:$50 for up to 300 mile
Variable Fee:$0.20 per mile over 300.
I know the answer is 425 miles but i need an equation to solve this problem.show work please

Answer 1

solve
\[50+0.20\times x\leq 75\] for x and that will give it to you

Answer 2

subtract 50 from both sides,
divide both sides by 0.2 to get your answer. but that answer tells you how many miles above the 300 you get, so you have to add 300 to it.

Answer 3

so 300+125 ?
