Hannah is deciding between two truck rental companies. Company A charges an initial fee of $30 for the rental plus $2 per mile d
riven. Company B charges an initial fee of $100 for the rental plus $1 per mile driven. Let AA represent the amount Company A would charge if Hannah drives xx miles, and let BB represent the amount Company B would charge if Hannah drives xx miles. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of x,x, and determine the interval of miles driven, x,x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.
