Question 1107775: A rental car company charges $104 per week and $0.2 per mile or $54 per week and $0.3 per mile. How many miles per week must a customer drive to make the first option the equivalent or better choice?
Enter the answer as an integer. Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 104 + 0.2x =< 54 + 0.3x
50 =< 0.1x
flip the equation to get the variable on the left
0.1x => 50
x => 500
At 500 miles they both cost the same. Over 500 miles the first option (104+0.2) is a better choice
