Becky is renting a car for her vacation. The rental costs $350 per week plus 20 cents per mile. If Becky can spend no more than $500, how far can she travel?
A) 450 miles
B) 625 miles
C) 750 miles
D) 800 miles
How do I figure this out??
Is it 450???
Do the equality the same way you do an equation.
350 + 0.2m ≤ 500
Subtract 350 from both sides.
Solve for m.
Its 750
the answer is 750
350 + 0.2m ≤ 500
No. Using the inequality I posted, how did you get that answer?
I don't know how to do inequalities....
So I took a guess...I thought 450 because that is less than 500 and she only has 500 dollars
Subtract 350 from 350 and 350 from 500? How do I get m?
350 + 0.2m ≤ 500
Subtract 350 from both sides.
0.2m ≤ 150
Divide both sides by 0.2
m ≤ 150 / 0.2
