Question

Answer the following questions based on this word problem:

The Beck family is planning on renting a car for their vacation. The two rental car companies have
different pricing plans.
Company A is $0.10 per mile and $25 a day.
Company B is $0.05 per mile and $40 a day.
Let x represent the number of miles and y represents the cost. They are only renting the van for 1 day.

Answer 1

Explanation:

A: $0.1(x) + 25(y) = x + 25

B: $0.05(x) + $40(y) = x + 40

Because they didn't give a certain amount of miles traveled, we have to go with we do know.

**this is probably wrong.
