Mr. Burns takes a one-day trip and rents a car using the rates given. All cars rental are $35 a day plus $0.07 per mile. The car rental cost is $68.25. Given the equation 0.07m + 35 = $68.25. Solve the equation to find how many miles he traveled.

475 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for this Equation given to us already in the question:

m = number of miles travelled

0.07m + 35 = $68.25.

0.07m + 35 = 68.25

Collect like terms

0.07 m = 68.25 - 35

0.07m = 33.25

m = 33.25 / 0.07

m = 475 miles

Therefore, the number of miles he travelled = 475 miles

rounding to the nearest thousandth would be 452,000
