Question 1047609: linda will rent a car for the weekend. she can choose one of two plans. the first plan has no initial fee but costs $0.60 per mile driven. the second plan has an initial fee of $55 and costs an additional $0.10 per mile driven. how many miles would linda need to drive for the two plans to cost the same

The same cost will be when both are equal
miles=m
0.60m=$55+0.10m
0.50m=$55, multiply both sides by 2.
m=110 miles
That will be $66 in the first and $55+110*(0.10)=$55+$11=$66 in the second.
