Joshep drove his grandmother’s house which is 252 miles away in 3.5 hours. If he continues at the same speed,approximately how long will It take him to drive 315 miles?

Graph A

Step-by-step explanation:

Say that the car rental rate stands for c dollars ( $ ). We know that Jamal's trip lasts for 4 days, paying $ 24 in expenses for gas, and $ 128 for taxi services. Based on these requirements for his trip the question asks for a graph that models this situation, but lets start with the inequality.

______

The big key here is the part " which graph shows the range of car rental rates that would be cheaper than the taxi service. " Our inequality must thus have the variable " c " on the same side as the payment for gas ($ 24 ), and must be less than the taxi service ( $ 128 ), or in other words a less than sign. Another point is the car rental rate. We know it stands for c, but it is dependent on the number of days. Hence we can conclude the following inequality,

24 + 4c < 128 - Subtract 24 from either side,

4c < 104 - Divide by 4 on either side, isolating c,

c < 26

The range of car rental rates that would be cheaper than the taxi service should be { c | 0 ≤ c < 26 }, knowing variable c stands for the car rental rates.

______

The graph that models this range should be the first one, option A. This graph is not accurate however, as it extends infinitely in the negative direction, and you can't have negative money, or rather be in debt - in this situation.
