please this one is hard: a car company rentcars for $19 per day which includes 200 mi. of driving. if you drive more than200mi. $.30 per mile fee will be charged . If the bill came to $62.50 how many mi. did he travel over 200mi.?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the equation for the cost, with n miles driven is \[ 19 + 0.3(n-200) = 62.5 \] then you solve for n and take away 200

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will you subtract $19 from $62.50= $43.50 then divide $43.50 by $.30=1.45mi over

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, that is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, but I got 145

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[43.5\div.3=435\div3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
