    total cost = 50 + 0.15 * x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have a fixed charge and a variable charge, which would be the number of miles you travel with the car. Therefore, the expression that represents this, would be the following:

    x = is the number of miles traveled in a given period

    total charge = 50 + 0.15 * x

    This total charge corresponds to the cost of renting a car in any amount of time (weeks)
