It is the end of the budgeting period for John​ Smith, and he has ​$500 left in his budget for car rental expenses. He plans to spend this budget on a sales trip throughout the country. He will rent a car that costs ​$50 per day and ​$ 0.50per​ mile, and he can spend no more than 500



Answer :

The number of miles that John Smith can travel with his budget is 900 miles.

How to calculate the expression?

Amount left in the budget = $500

Since he will rent a car that costs $50 per day and $ 0.50per mile, the expression will be:

50 + 0.50m = 500

Collect like terms

0.5m = 500 - 50

0.5m = 450

Divide

m = 450/0.5

m = 900

Therefore, the number of miles that John Smith can travel with his budget is 900 miles.
