To find out how many miles you can travel in one week for a given cost, we need to determine the cost per mile and then divide the total cost by the cost per mile.
The rental agency charges $250 per week and $0.25 per mile.
Let's assume the total cost for one week of rental is $x.
Therefore, the cost per mile can be calculated as follows:
Cost per mile = Total cost / Miles traveled
In this case, we have:
$x = $250 (Weekly cost)
$0.25 (Cost per mile)
x = Total cost for one week of rental
To find the number of miles you can travel in one week for $x, we can rearrange the equation:
Miles traveled = Total cost / Cost per mile
Miles traveled = x / $0.25
Therefore, the number of miles you can travel in one week for a cost of $x would be:
Miles traveled = x / $0.25
Please note that the value of $x was not provided in the initial question, so you would need to specify the value of $x in order to calculate the number of miles.
