You can
put this solution on YOUR website!Let x=the number of miles they would have to drive before the Toyota price is
more than the Avis price.
Assumption: They can only rent from Toyota by the week - not by the day.
Thus, Avis would cost $245 for the same amount of time (7 days).
Now we know that when the cost of Toyota per week (minimum rental) (150+.19x) equals the cost of Avis per week ($245), any additional mileage would make the Toyota price more than the Avis price. Thus, our equation to solve is:
(150+.19x)=245 and
.19x=245-150
.19x=95
x=500 miles
