Isabell will rent a car for a day. The rental company offers two pricing options: Option A and option B. For each pricing option, cost (in dollars) depends on miles driven, as shown below. It’s Isabell drive the rental car 200 miles which option cost more?How much more does it cost than the other option?For what number of miles driven do the two options cost the same?If Isabell drives more than this amount, which option cost more?

Answer 1

From the graph of miles driven and pricing, it can be observed that for 200 miles option A price is $100 and option B price is $70.

So option A cost more than option B.

Determine the difference between $100 and $70 to obtain how much option A cost more than option B.

`100-70=30`

So option A cost $30 more than option B.

From the graph, it can be observed that lines of option A and option B intersect each other at (50,40). So option A and option B cost same for 50 miles.
