Alice needs to rent a car while on vacation. The rental company charges $17.95, plus 15 cents for each mile driven. If Alice only has $40 to spend on the car rental, what is the maximum number of miles she can drive?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Alice can drive 147 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

At first you subtract $17.95 from $40.

Then you are left with $22.05

Finally, you divide $22.05 by $0.15

And you get 147, so she can drive 147 miles without going over her limit.
