Answer 1

Answer:

a rental car agency charges a flat rate fee of $32.00 plus $3.00 per day to rent a certain car

c = 32 + 3d

another agency charges a fee of $30.50 plus $3.25 per day to rent the same car

c = 30.50 + 3.25d

the number of days for which the cost are the same means

32 + 3d = 30.50 + 3.25d

by solving we find   d = 6 days
