Amanda is going to rent a truck for one day. There are two companies she can choose from, and they have the following prices. Company A charges an initial fee of $55 and an additional 70 cents for every mile driven.
Company B charges an initial fee of $97.50 and an additional 20 cents for every mile driven.
For what mileages will Company A charge less than Company B?
Write your answer as an inequality, using m for the number of miles driven.

The mileages for which Company A charges less than Company B is 0 miles ≤ m ≤ 85 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for the two companies are;

For Company A

Company A initial fee = $55

The additional fee per mile = 70 cents

For Company B

Company B initial fee = $97.50

The additional fee per mile = 20 cents

Let represent the total charge for company A and let represent the total charge for company B, we have;

= 55 + 0.70 × m

= 97.50 + 0.20 × m

Where "m" represents the number of miles driven

Therefore, the cost of Company A and Company B are the same or equal when have the following relation;

=

∴ 55 + 0.70 × m = 97.50 + 0.20 × m

0.70 × m - 0.20 × m = 97.50 - 55

0.5 × m = 42.5

m = 85

The number of miles driven for which the two companies will charge the same amount, m = 85 miles

Therefore, given that the initial fee for Company A is less than the initial fee for Company B. we have;

Therefore for 0 miles  ≤ m < 85 miles, Company A charges less than Company B.

false

step-by-step explanation:

false.   two legs of the trapezoid would be congruent, but the other two would not.   were all the legs congruent, then we'd have a square; were the 2 shorter sides congruent and the 2 longer sides also congruent, we'd have a rectangle.

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c
