Question
To rent a car you need to pay a flat fee plus $0.20 for each mile that you drive. Which equation could be used to solve for the price of the initial fee if the total cost of a rental was $60 when the car was driven 40 miles?(2 points)
Responses
60 + 0.2(40) = x
60 + 0.2(40) = x
0.2x + 40 = 60
0.2x + 40 = 60
0.2(60) + x = 40
0.2(60) + x = 40
x + 0.2(40) = 60
