<em><u>You can pay $20 a day plus 25¢ a mile (Option A)</u></em>
25 cents is equal to 0.25 dollars
OPTION A : 20 + 0.25x
<em><u>You pay $10 a day plus 50¢ a mile (Option B)</u></em>
50 cents equal to 0.50 dollars
Option B: 10 + 0.50x
<em><u>For what amount of daily miles will option A be the cheaper plan ?</u></em>
For option A to be cheaper, Option A must be less than option B
Option A < Option B

Add - 20 on both sides,
Divide both sides by 0.25
Thus you must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
