0.10x+200=240

If you have 240 dollars and you need to rent a car that charges 200 per week plus .10 per mile...then you need to write up an equation.
C= .1m + 200
Since you need to spend 240 dollars that will be your total cost or c and you are solving for m which is the number of miles.
240 = .1m + 200
Can you work it from there?
