Question

A car rental company charges an initial fee plus a constant fee per kilometer driven what is the company's in initial fee if a car drives 105 kilometers and pays 183 dollars

Answer 1

Answer:

$183 - $105b

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Initial fee = a

Constant fee per kilometer = b

Hence, total amount paid can be modeled as :

Total amount = a + bx

Where x = number of kilometers driven

If number of miles driven = 105 km ; and Total amount paid = $183

Total amount = a + bx

$183 = a + 105b

$183 - 105b = a

Hence, Initial amount paid will be :

$183 - $105b
