Question 428967: you need to rent a moving truck for a day. You have identified two companies that rent trucks. company a charges $50 per day plus$0.15 per mile. company B charges $45 per day plus $0.25 per mile. For how many miles will the cost of renting be the same? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To compare renting the trucks from different companies, we have:
50 + .15X = 45 + .25X
5 = .10X
5/.1 = X
50 = X
After driving 50 miles, it's cheaper to rent from company A.
