Question

Chau will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $50 and costs an additional $0.19 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of $57 and costs an additional $0.15 per mile driven.

Answer 1

175 Miles has to be driven to do the plans cost the same.

Explanation:

Assume The Chau Drive Y miles .

We Have Given Two Plans ,

• First Plan = 50$ + 0.19$ × Y

• Second Plan = 57$ + 0.15$ × Y

Now,Put First Plan=Second Plan (When Both Plans Cost The Same)

50$ + 0.19$ × Y = 57$ + 0.15$ × Y

0.04$ × Y = 7 ⇔ Y = 175 Miles
