Question 1164587: Loudon Car Rental Company charges a $30 fee for the first 50 miles a compact car is driven. There is a $0.25 charge for every mile the car is driven over 50 miles. (So, there is no per mile charge for 0 - 50 miles driven).
(a) Write an equation that can be used to determine a car renter’s bill, B(x), given the amount of miles driven is called, x. Assume that the renter will drive over 50 miles before returning the car.

I put 30+ 0.25x is that correct

Question 1165245: Mark manages a store that sells cell phones. Each MX300 takes 6 hours to create the plastic pieces, 2 hours to create the electronics, and 10 hours of labor to assemble the final product. Each XL2000 requires 3 hours to create the plastic pieces, 4 hours to create the electronics, and 21 hours of labor to assemble the final product. The factory has 840 hours to create the plastic pieces, 360 hours to create the electronics, and 1880 hours of labor to assemble the final product each week. If each MX300 generates $4 in profit, and each XL2000 generates $19, how many of each of the cell phones should Mark have the store sell each week to make the most profit?

I solved this problem like this but I am not sure if this is correct way of thinking. Thank you.
My solution: x+y=c, 3+(-4)=3-4=-1,
x-y=d, 3-(-4)=3+4=7,
My system of equation is:
y=-x-1
y=x-7
Both lines are perpendicular because -1times1=-1
