You must drive more than 40 miles to make option A the cheaper plan
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Two payment options to rent a car
Let "x" be the number of miles driven in one day
<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

Solve the inequality
Add -0.50x on both sides

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
From the Special Triangle Theorem, the hypotenuse is equal to the side lengtht times the Sqrt(2).
So hypotenuse H = xSqrt(2), x=H/Sqrt(2).
Using numbers, if H = 7, then x = 7/Sqrt(2) = 7Sqrt(2)/2 to rationalize it.
Answer: $7,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: SI = P(1 + rt)
SI = 5000(1 + 0.05[10])
SI = 5000 + 2500
SI = $7,500
After 10 years, your balance should be $7,500
It would be a special purposes map :)
