Linear Equations in One Variable · Exercise 76

Use this scenario: The cost of renting a car is $45/wk plus $0.25/mi traveled during that week. An equation to represent the cost would be $y = 45 + .25 x,$ where $x$ is the number of miles traveled.

Suppose you have a maximum of $100 to spend for the car rental. What would be the maximum number of miles you could travel?
