A car rental company charges a daily rate plus a per-mile fee. What is the total cost for renting a car for 3 days and driving 200 miles?

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

To find the total cost, we need both the daily rate and the per-mile fee. Statement (1) provides the daily rate. Statement (2) provides the per-mile fee. Both together allow for calculation: (3 days * $40/day) + (200 miles * $0.25/mile) = $120 + $50 = $170.
