See a solution process below:

The formula for the total rental cost of a car is:

#c = (d * r) + l + w#

Where:

#c# is the total rental cost - what we are trying to determine in this problem.

#d# is the number of days the car will be rented - 5 days for this problem.

#r# is the daily rental rate - $39 for this problem.

#l# is the loss damage waiver fee - $65 for this problem

#w# is the collisoon damage waiver fee - $0 for this problem.

Substituting and calculating #c# gives:

#c = (5 * $39) + $65 + $0#

#c = (5 * $39) + $65#

#c = $195 + $65#

#c = $260#

Jennifer's total rental cost will be #$260#
