Answer:
An equation for each situation, in terms of x
A = 35 + 3x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the amount Company A would charge if Piper drives x miles
Let B represent the amount Company B would charge if Piper drives x miles.
Company A charges an initial fee of $35 for the rental plus $3 per mile driven.
A= $35 + $3 × x
A = 35 + 3x
Company B charges an initial fee of $80 for the rental plus $2 per mile driven.
B = $80 + $2 × x
B = 80 + 2x
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.
= A < B
35 + 3x < 80 + 2x
3x - 2x < 80 - 35
x < 45 miles
That is: any number of miles driven below 45 miles makes Company A cheaper than Company B
The interval of miles driven x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B is 0 to 44.9 miles.

Answer:
<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;
On equating:
75 + 50x, = 75x + 50
collect like terms'
50x-75x = 50-75
-25x = -25
divide both sides by -25
-25x/-25 = -25/-25
x = 1
hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour
