Question

Company A charges $331.35 per week for a compact car with unlimited miles. Company B charges $175 per week plus $0.53 per mile, for the same car. How many miles must be driven in a week so that company A is a better deal than company B?

Answer 1

Answer: more than 295

Explanation: we need it to cost more than company's A deal so:

175 + 0.53x > 331.35

subtract 175 from both sides

0.53x> 156.35

divide 0.53 from both sides

x> 295

Answer 2

so basically anyhting over 295 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

331.35 = 175 + (0.53m)

156.35 = 0.53m

295 = m
