I need help with these math problem please

60 = (25 x 2) + 0.104.60 = 50 + 0.54.60 = 0.(now you need to divide by 0.......
A car rental company charges $25 per day plus 20 cents per mile driven. Luis
rented a car for 2 days and was charged $104.60. How many miles did he drive?

-
so you need to write the equation and let X be the number of miles

104.60 = (25 x 2) + 0.20X
(first step is to get rid of parenthesis)

104.60 = 50 + 0.20X
(then you need to subtract 50 from both sides)

54.60 = 0.20X
(now you need to divide by 0.20 on both sides)

273 = X

-
Set up an equation. C(x)= 0.20x + 25y, where x is miles driven and y is number of days.
Plug in your equation. $104.60 = 0.20x + 25 (2)
Simplify the Equation $104.60 = 0.20x + 50
Subtact 50 from both sides. $54.60 = 0.20x
Divide both sides by 0.20 to get the number of miles driven.
x is 273 miles
