Answer:

At Zippy's Rentals : y = 20 + 2 5 x

At Smyth's Rentals: y = 40 + 2 0 x

Step-by-step explanation:

At Zippy's Rentals:

The per day charge = $25

The service charge = $20

So, the charges for renting cars for x days = x (Per day rental charge)

= x( $25) = 25 x

Now, total charges (y) = Service Charge + Rental fee for x days

or, y = 20 + 2 5 x

At Smyth's Rentals:

The per day charge = $20

The service charge = $40

So, the charges for renting cars for x days = x (Per day rental charge)

= x( $20) = 20 x

Now, total charges (y) = Service Charge + Rental fee for x days

or, y = 40 + 2 0 x
