$6.60/mile


$1.08/mile


$6.00/mile


$0.92/mile

Respuesta :

$1.08/mile is the answer. 

Answer:

$1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Gavin paid $33 for the rental of the bike for driving 30 miles.

Let us find rental rate in dollar per mile by dividing total rental by total distance traveled.

[tex]\text{Rental rate}=\frac{\$33}{30\text{ miles}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Rental rate}=\frac{\$1.10}{\text{ mile}}[/tex]

Therefore, the rental rate is $1.10 per mile.
