Marlon Hooper · Answer 1

Daily fee: 5x

rental fee: 25

budget:60

5x + 25 < = 60

Haven Mccoy · Answer 2

5x + 25 < 60 will be the inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ronald wants to rent a car to a trip and has a budget of $60.

Fixed rental fees of the car is $25 and a daily fees of $5.

Now we have to write an inequality for which Ronald can rent the car on his budget.

Let total number of days Ronald can rent the car = x days

So the total rent of the car will be (5x + 25)

This rent should be less than $60.

So 5x + 25 < 60 will be the inequality to solve for the maximum number of days for which he can rent the car on his budget.
