<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>They should travel 120 mils in one day for both rental agencies to cost the same amount to rent</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A rental car agency charges $30.00 per day plus per mile $0.15.

Let x be the number of miles travelled by car

Their total cost = 30 + (0.15x) ... (1)

Another rental car agency charges $36.00 per day plus $0.10 per mile

Their total cost = 36 + (0.10x) ... (2)

Equating (1) and (2), we get

30 + (0.15x) = 36 + (0.10x)

36 - 30 = 0.15x - 0.10x

6 = 0.05x

x = 120 miles

They should travel 120 mils in one day for both rental agencies to cost the same amount to rent

How do you find the equations of the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for a graph when you only have the graph and no function

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

See below for answer and explanations (as well as an attached graph)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pay attention to the behavior of the asymptotes. If the asymptotes are approaching a certain x-value or y-value, then that value is undefined for the function.

Take for example $y=\frac{1}{x}$ :
