The answer is A . Hope this Helps
4/5 and 40/50 are both equivalent
Company A charges $75.50 and 14¢ per mile, then for x miles, Company A charges 75.5 + 0.14x dollars
Company B charges $30.50 and 9¢ per mile, then for x miles, Company B charges 30.5 + 0.09x dollars
Subtracting the second equation to the first one,
75.5 + 0.14x
-
30.5 + 0.09x
----------------------
45 + 0.05x
For x miles, Company A charges 45 + 0.05x dollars more than Company B.
