50*x=80 (x=percent in decimal form)

x=1.6 (divide both sides by 50)

Doubke check:

50*1.6=80

80=80

Convert 1.6 into a percent:

1.6 -> 160%

Answer:

The minimum number of miles you would need to drive in a month to make the first deal a better deal is 66.6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first deal to be a better deal it has to cost less than the second plan and you can write an equation in which the first plan has a lower cost than the second one:

10+0.60m<0.75m, where:

m is the number of miles driven

Now, you can solve for m:

10<0.75m-0.60m

10<0.15m

10/0.15<m

m>66.6

According to this, the answer is that the minimum number of miles you would need to drive in a month to make the first deal a better deal is 66.6 miles.

Step one:
ALWAYS set equation equal to zero, which in this case has already been done for us.

Step two:
Figure out what formula you need to use in order to solve in this case I'd use the Quadratic formula.

a=1
b=9
c=2

Quadratic formula:
$x = \frac{ - b + - \sqrt{(b) ^{2} - 4(a)(c)} }{2(a)}$
Then you would plug in the information.
$x = \frac{ - 9+ - \sqrt{(9) {}^{2} - 4(1)(2) } }{2(1)}$
The solve for what is underneath the square root ONLY.
$x = \frac{ - 9 + - \sqrt{73} }{2}$
Since you cannot solve this any further, your final two answers are...
$x = \frac{ - 9 + \sqrt{73} }{2}$
$x = \frac{ - 9 - \sqrt{73} }{2}$
