Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the daily fee as DD and the cost per mile as CC. The total cost (TT) to rent the truck is given by the formula:

T=D+C×miles drivenT=D+C×miles driven

In this case, it's given that when driven 48 miles, the cost is $64. So, we can set up the equation:

64=D+0.50×4864=D+0.50×48

Now, we can solve for DD:

64=D+2464=D+24

Subtract 24 from both sides:

D=40D=40

Therefore, the daily fee to rent the truck is $40.
