Acar rental agency charges $35.88 per day plus $0.27 per mile for a certain type of car. how much is the total rental charge for a 3-day trip of 758 miles?

the total rental charge for a 3-day trip of 758 miles is $240.54

Step-by-step explanation:

A car rental agency charges $35.88 per day plus $0.27 per mile for a certain type of car. If the car is rented for x miles, it means that the total cost, y of renting the car for x miles would be

y = 0.27x + 35.88 - - - - - - - - 1

To determine the total rental charge for a 3-day trip of 758 miles, we will substitute x = 758 into equation 1, it becomes

y = 0.27× 758 + 35.88 = 204.66 + 35.88 = $240.54

do you mean add both of the equations together

because if you do the answer is 10x-5
