Answer:
160 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A form $130 a day plus $0.30 per mile
Company A = 130 + 0.30x
Company B charges $50 a day plus $0.80 per mile
Company B = 50 + 0.80x
Where,
x = number of miles
Equate the cost of company A and company B
130 + 0.30x = 50 + 0.80x
Collect like terms
130 - 50 = 0.80x - 0.30x
80 = 0.50x
Divide both sides by 0.50x
x = 80 / 0.50
= 160
x = 160 miles
The number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same is 160 miles
3x^2 - 12 = 0
Personally, I would divide each side by 3 x^2 - 4 = 0
Then I would add 4 to each side x^2 = 4
Then I would take the square root of each side: x = +4
x = -4 .
Having found both solutions, I would relax with a cup of tea.
