A car rental company charges 35 dollars a day plus 25 cents a mile to rent a car. What would be the cost to rent a car for one day and drive it 200 miles?

Amount charged by the car rental company per day = $35 Amount charged by the car rental company per mile = $0.25 Distance that was driven in 1 day = 200 miles Cost charged by the company for travelling 200 miles in 1 day = 35 + (200 * 0.25) dollars                               = 35 + 50 dollars                               = 85 dollars The cost for renting a car for a day and driving for 200 miles would be $85.
