Tom and his friend are driving to Tameka is taking the same 432-mile round trip as Tom to Louisville, but renting a car at a special rate of $99.99 with unlimited miles. If her car gets 35 mpg and cost of gasoline is $2.79, what will the rental, including gas, cost her?

The correct answer is $ 134.42 for the gas and the rental.

Step-by-step explanation: The trip is 432 miles and Tameka's car gets 35 miles to the gallon. So we have to figure out how many gallons we would use for the entire trip by dividing 432 by 35= 12.34 gallons of gas.

We know gas is $2.79 a gallon so we multiply 2.79 (cost per gallon) x 12.34 ( our total gallons used) =$34.43 in gasoline.

The rental costs $99.99 so we add that cost and the cost of the gas $34.43= $134.42 the total cost of the rental and the gas.

rick would give her the best deal as he will charge $8.88 per hour
