A car rental company charges a daily fee, plus an additional fee for each mile driven. Susan rented a car for one day, drove 100 miles, and was charged $48.00. Bob rented a car for one day, drove 224 miles, and was charged $72.80. How much does the company charge for a one-day rental and 172 miles driven?

A. $56.60
B. $60.40
C. $62.40
D. $68.00

C. $62.40

Step-by-step explanation: After hours of trying, I finally figured it out. We have to find out what the fee is for each mile...

224 - 100 = 124

$72.80 - $48 = $24.8

124 miles = $24.8

$24.8 divided by 124 = $0.2

Now, we know each mile is worth $0.2. Let's multiply 172 and the value of each mile...

$0.2 x 172 = $34.4

Now, let's try to find the daily fee...

100 miles = 100 x 0.2 = $20

$48 - $20 = $28

The daily fee is worth $28...now let's put everything together.

$28 + $34.4 = $62.40

I hope this helps!
