Question

cars for you will rent a car for $11.00 per day plus $0.27 per mile driven. Rent-A-Rama will rent the same car for 26.00 per day plus $0.27 per mile driven
A: Write an equation that represents the situation when the total rental cost for one day is the same at both rental agencies
B: For how many miles is the total rental cost for one day the same for each car?
C: If you plan to rent a car for one day and drive 100 miles, which rental agency should you choose

Answer 1

are u sure the question is right?
cuz both have the same charge per mile driven
and have different costs per day so they will never be equal for number 1

Answer 2

Ya i do online math that is what it says

Answer 3

post a screenshot of the question

Answer 4

how

Answer 5

okay so write an equation make up some variable names

Answer 6

let m be the number of miles
let d be for the number of days
this company "cars for you" will charge
charge=11*d+0.27m

Answer 7

what about the charge for the other company?

Answer 8

it asks for 1 day tho so i dont think it is 11d

Answer 9

it is if u set d=1

Answer 10

and ya this equation has no solution, as they have the same cost for miles driven

Answer 11

meaning so rate of change wrt to miles driven, so lines of same slope there cannot be an intersection for 2 lines of same slope unless they are the same line
