Answer:

A) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question, we need to create an equation.

If A company initially supplies $30 and then $2 per mile, the equation:

2x+30 would.

If B company initially supplies $20 and then $4 per mile, the equation:

4x+20 would.

In the question, since these two wages are asked to be equalized, we equate these two equations with each other and find the result. The answer:

2x+30 = 4x+20

2x = 10

x = 5 would.

The answer 5 would.
