ok so lets work our way up to see when the price will be the same so..luguna charges $20 plus $2 per mile and Salvatore cost 3 per mile so..

20+2=22+2=24+2=26+2=28+2=30+2=32+2=34+2=36+2=38+2=40+2=42+2=44+2=46+2=48+2=50+2=52+2=54+2

3+3=6+3=9+3=12+3=15+3=18+3=21+3=24+3=27+3=30+3=33+3+36+3=39+3=42+3=45+3+48+3=51+3=54 so it would take 18 miles hope this helped
