Respuesta :

Answer:

178 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Eric has driven d miles.

As the rate of charge of driving the truck = 76 cents /mile

So, the charge of driving the truck for d miles = 76d cents= $0.76d

The base fee of the truck was $16.95.

Total money paid at the time of returning the truck = $152.23

So, 16.95+0.76d=152.23

0.76d= 152.23-16.95=135.28

d=135.28/0.76

d=178

Hence, he drives 178 miles.
