Peter will rent a vehicle while his truck is being repaired. Company A charges $25 per day, plus a one-time fee of $60 for rental insurance. Company B charges $45 per day, and the insurance fee is included in the daily rate. The equation 25d + 60 = 45d can be used to find d, the number of days that Peter can rent a vehicle for the same cost from either company

Answer: 3 days

Explanation:

25d + 60 = 45d

60 = 20d

3 = d

Check work:

25(3) + 60 = A

75 + 60 = A

135 = A

45(3) = B

135 = B
