Question 1081902: Juan is going to rent a truck for one day. There are two companies he can choose from, and they have the following prices. Company A charges $92 and allows unlimited mileage. Company B has an initial fee of $65 and charges an additional $0.90 for every mile driven.
For what mileages will Company A charge less than Company B? Use m for the number of miles driven, and solve your inequality for m.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
[ charge for A ] < [ charge for B ]
+92++%3C+65+%2B+.9m+
+27+%3C+.9m+
+27%2F.9+%3C+m+
+m+%3E+30+
-----------------
check:
If +m+=+30+, then the inequality is not true
+92+%3C+65+%2B+.9%2A30+
+92+%3C+65+%2B+27+
+27+%3C+27+ not true
OK
