Answer:

B) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

m = miles

$98=$80+$0.15m

$98-$80=$80-$80+$0.15m

$18=$0.15m

$18/$0.15=$0.15m/$0.15

120=m

Juliet drove 120 miles for $98.

(this is a good explanation, I guess)

Answer:

Option B) 120 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Company charges per day for a car rent = $80

and per mile driven = $0.15

Juliet rented a car for one day and she was charged a total = $98

Let Juliet traveled x miles

$80 + $0.15x = $98

0.15x = 98 - 80

0.15x = 18

x = [tex]\frac{18}{0.15}[/tex]

x = 120 miles

Juliet was charged for 120 miles driving.
