Answer:

the number of miles is 160

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is given below:

Let us assume the miles be x

For company A

y = $100 + $0.40x

And, for company B

y = $20 + $0.90x

In order to find out the number of miles, the rental cost of the company A should be less than the company B rental cost

SO,

$20 + $0.90x > $100 + $0.40x

Subtract $20 from both sides

0.90x > 80 + 0.40x

Now subtract 0.40x from both sides

0.50x >80

x>160

So the number of miles is 160

How to solve x=6y-11 and 3x-2y=-1 by substitution
vagabundo [1.1K]
Substitute x into the second equation:
3(6y-11)-2y=-1
18y-33-2y=-1
16y=32
y=2
Then put the y value into the first equation to get x:
x=6(2)-11
x=1
There you go!
