Henry rented a truck for one day. there was a base Fee of $18.95, and there was an additional charge of $.79 for each mile driven. Henry had to pay $183.27 when he returned the truck. for how many miles did he drive the truck?

Solution:

Given that,

Base fee = $ 18.95

Additional charge of $.79 for each mile driven

Let "x" be the miles driven

Henry had to pay $183.27 when he returned the truck

Therefore,

Cost for rent = base fee + charge for "x" miles

183.27 = 18.95 + 0.79x

0.79x = 183.27 - 18.95

0.79x = 164.32

Divide both sides by 0.79

x = 208

Thus Henry drove for 208 miles the truck

step-by-step explanation:

5x+10 is the correct one
