Question

Dan will rent a car for the weekend. She can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $59 and costs an additional $0.07 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of $50 and costs an additional $0.09 per mile driven. For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same ? What is the cost when the two plans cost the same ?

Answer 1

Answer:

450 miles , $90.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the miles driven

59 + 0.07d = 50 + 0.09d

d = 450

The two plans cost the same when he drives for 450 miles which the respective cost is 59 + 0.07(450) = $90.5
