Question

Identify and solve an equation to find the number m of miles you must drive to have the same cost for each of the rental cars 15+0.5m=25+0.25m

Answer 1

Assuming the given equation fairly represents the rental car costs being equal to each other, we can solve for m by ...

... 0.25m = 10 . . . . . . add -15-0.25m

... m = 40 . . . . . . . . .. multiply by 4

You must drive 40 miles for the costs to be equal.
