Question 657908: A car rental company offers two plans for renting a car.
1. Plan A 30 dollars and 10 cents per mile
2. Plan B 50 dollars with free unlimited mileage
For what range of miles will Plan B save you money?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Plan B will save money when Plan A costs you more than 50 dollars
so let say for X mile Plan B is better than Plan A
Hence 30 + 0.1X = 50
Which gives X = 200 miles
so If you want to go for more than 200 miles , Plan B will save money in that case.
