Answer:

80 miles

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Rental of the first agency = $36.95 + 36 cents per mile

or

= $36.95 + $0.36 per mile                   [as $1 = 100 cents ]

Rental of the second agency = $44.95 + 26 cents per mile

or

= $44.95 + $0.26 per mile  

now,

let the mileage be 'x' miles

therefore,

the cost for the first agency will be = $36.95 + ( 0.36 × x )    ............(a)

and,

the cost for the second agency will be = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )    ........(b)

for the equal mileage, equating (a) and (b)

$36.95 + ( 0.36 × x ) = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )

or

( $0.36 - $0.26 ) × x = $44.95 - $36.95

or

0.1x = 8

or

x = 80 miles

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

B. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300

Explanation:

Assuming that one state cleaning the lake does not interfere with the costs and social benefits of the other state (events are independent), Wisconsin will incur 1,200 in costs and receive 1,100 in benefits from its own cleaning and 300 from Illinois' cleaning. Illinois will incur costs of 900 and receive 600 in benefits from its own cleaning and 400 from Wisconsin's cleaning.

The payoff for each state is:

W = -1,200+1,100+300\\W=200\\I=-700+600+400\\I=300

Therefore, Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300.
