Question #N73
A group of students are planning a trip. They need to rent a van that costs \$60 per day. The students also need to pay a one-time fee of \$100 for insurance. Which of the following equations represents the total cost, *C*, in dollars, of renting the van for *d* days?
A. C = 60d + 100
B. C = 100d + 60
C. C = 60(d + 100)
D. C = 100(d + 60)
Correct Answer is: A
The total cost is the daily rental cost times the number of days plus the insurance fee. This can be represented by the equation C = 60d + 100.
