Answer:

distance driven < 300 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plan A

She needs the car for 3 days.

1 day costs 60 dollars

3 days cost 60*3 = 180 So this is the maximum amount that she can spend

Plan B

She still needs the car for 3 days

1 day costs 20 dollars of the car does not move

3 days costs 3*20 = 60 dollars.

60 + 0.4m < 180                Subtract 60

0.4m < 180 - 60

0.4m < 120                        Divide by 0.4

m < 120/ 0.4

m < 300  

Answer

so she should drive less than 300 miles.
