Answer:

Carlos drove 88 miles in the rental car.

Step-by-step explanation:

20+.50m=64

-20          -20

.50m=44/.5

m=88

Answer:

88 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The amount of one time fees = $ 20,

Also, the additional amount per miles = $ 0.50,

If the car is driven x miles,

Then the additional amount for x miles = 0.50x

So, the total charge = 20 + 0.50x

According to the question,

20 + 0.50x = 64

0.50x = 64 - 20

0.50x = 44

[tex]\implies x = \frac{44}{0.5}=88[/tex]

Hence, the car is driven 88 miles.
