Renting a truck cost $30 per day and 22 cents per mile when the driver goes beyond the 23 miles a lot of per day. How much wood Tabitha pay when renting a truck for 3 days and driving a total of 210 miles?
3*30 + (210-3*23)*.22
To find out how much Tabitha will pay for renting a truck for 3 days and driving a total of 210 miles, we need to calculate two things:
1. The cost for 3 days of rental: Tabitha will pay $30 per day for the truck rental, so the total cost for 3 days will be: 3 days * $30 per day = $90.
2. The cost for driving the total of 210 miles: Tabitha will be charged an additional 22 cents per mile for any distance beyond 23 miles per day. So, the excess miles driven will be: Total miles driven - (23 miles per day * number of days). In this case, it will be: 210 miles - (23 miles per day * 3 days) = 210 miles - 69 miles = 141 miles.
The cost for driving these excess miles will be: 141 miles * 22 cents per mile = $31.02 (rounded to the nearest cent).
Finally, to find Tabitha's total cost, we add the rental cost of $90 to the cost of the excess miles of $31.02: $90 + $31.02 ≈ $121.02.
Therefore, Tabitha will pay approximately $121.02 when renting a truck for 3 days and driving a total of 210 miles.
