Mathew's company charges $0.4 less per mile than Jayden's

The equation that represents Mathew's charges is given as:

[tex]y = 1.32 + 2x[/tex]

Jayden's pickup is given as $2.50, while the rate per mile is given as $2.40.

So, the equation that represents Jayden's charges is

[tex]y = 2.50 + 2.4x[/tex]

So, the equations are:

[tex]y = 1.32 + 2x[/tex] --- Mathew

[tex]y = 2.50 + 2.4x[/tex] --- Jayden

A linear equation is represented as:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

m represents the slope/rate.

Hence, Mathew's company charges $0.4 less per mile than Jayden's
