Question 131078: please help me solve this problem
Ron will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two payment plans. The first plan costs $59.96 for two days plus 15 cents per mile. The second plan costs $55.96 for two days plus 19 cents per mile. How many miles does Ron need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 59.96+.15x=55.96+.19x
.15x-.19x=55.96-59.96
-.04x=-4
x=-4/-.04
x=100 miles is the same price for both plans.
