Answer:
[tex]K(x)=0.60x+25.20[/tex] and [tex]W(x)=42x[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent number of miles.
We have been given that Kurts car company charges $25.20 for a daily rental plus $.60 per mile.
The cost of x miles using Kurts car company would be [tex]0.60x[/tex]. The total cost would be fixed charges plus amount charges for x miles that is
[tex]K(x)=0.60x+25.20[/tex].
We are also told that Rent-A-Wreck car company charges a flat rate of $42 for the same model car. So total cost of x miles using Rent-A-Wreck car company would be [tex]W(x)=42x[/tex].
Therefore, our required equations would be [tex]K(x)=0.60x+25.20[/tex] and [tex]W(x)=42x[/tex].
