jenny is going to rent a truck for one day. There are two companies she can choose from, and they have the following prices. Company A charges $94 and allows unlimited mileage. Company B has an initial fee of $55 and charges an additional $0.60 for every mile driven. For what mileages will Company A charge less than Company B

Respuesta :

Answer:

until 64 miles company A will charge less than company B, they will charge the same price at 65 miles then company B will charge more.

explanation:

94 = 55 + 0.6m

m = (94-55) / 0.6 = 65

The Company A charge less than Company B when the mileage will be more than 65 .

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign. For example, 3x – 5 = 16 is an equation.  

According to the question

Jenny is going to rent a truck for one day.  

Company A :

Charges $94 and allows unlimited mileage.

i.e

Rent of truck for one day = $94

Company B :

Has an initial fee of $55 and charges an additional $0.60 for every mile driven.

Let mile be m

i.e

Rent of truck for one day = $55 +  $0.60m

Now, Company A charge less than Company B for mileages

For that we will first find equal point by making both Company's rent equal

Company's A Rent of truck for one day = Company's B Rent of truck for one day

The equation will be :

[tex]94 = 55 + 0.60m[/tex]  

[tex]39 = 0.6m[/tex]

m = 65

So, at 65 miles both company will rent same but after 65 miles Company B will charge more than Company A .

Hence, The Company A charge less than Company B when the mileage will be more than 65 .
