the clarkes son suggests that they rent a car that costs $250 for the week pllus 22cents/km. their daughter does not want to drive far so she suggests a car that is only $96 for the week but 50cents/km

To compare the cost of renting a car for the week between the options, we need to calculate the total cost for each option.

Option 1:
- Base cost: $250
- Additional cost per kilometer: 22 cents

Option 2:
- Base cost: $96
- Additional cost per kilometer: 50 cents

Let's assume the family wants to drive a certain number of kilometers, let's say 500 km.

For Option 1:
- Base cost: $250
- Additional cost for 500 km: 500 km * $0.22/km = $110
- Total cost: $250 + $110 = $360

For Option 2:
- Base cost: $96
- Additional cost for 500 km: 500 km * $0.50/km = $250
- Total cost: $96 + $250 = $346

Therefore, for driving 500 km, Option 1 would cost $360, while Option 2 would cost $346.

To determine which option is more cost-effective, you can compare the total costs for the desired number of kilometers of driving.
