Let no of miles be y

  • A=0.7y+70
  • B=0.8y+20

\\ \sf\longmapsto A=B

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.7y+70=0.8y+20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.8y-0.7y=70-20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.1y=50

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=\dfrac{50}{0.1}

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=500miles

Answer:

  • 500 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of miles is x.

<u>Then for each company we have total charge of:</u>

  • A = 0.7x + 70
  • B = 0.8x + 20

<u>Since A = B, solve for x:</u>

  • 0.7x + 70 = 0.8x + 20
  • 0.8x - 0.7x = 70 - 20
  • 0.1x = 50
  • x = 50/0.1
  • x = 500 miles

Alex
Since heidi is on a submarine 3703 below, we could say that she's -3703 and spencer is 11,224. 11224-(-3703)=14927
