Answer:

100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of miles driven = x

Rapid Rental Car Company charges a $55 rental fee and $0.25 per mile driven.

$55 + $0.25x

55 + 0.25x

For the same car, Capital Cars charges $45 for rental fee and $0.35 per mile.

$45 + $0.35x

45 + 0.35x

Equation :

55 + 0.25x = 45 + 0.35x

The number of miles for which the companies’ charges will be the same is calculated as:

55 + 0.25x = 45 + 0.35x

Collect like terms

55 - 45 = 0.35x - 0.25x

10 = 0.10x

x = 10/0.10

x = 100 miles

The number of miles for which the companies’ charges will be the same is

100 miles.
