Answer:

See answers to parts a and b below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Value: y=20+.20x

Best Rent y=30+.10x

B. 20+.20x=30+.10x make equations equal each other by subbing y values.

.10x=10 simplify equation

x=100

check answers by subbing 100 for x in each equation.

y=20+.20(100)

y=20+20

y=40

y=30+.10(100)

y=30+10

y=40

Both equations equal 40, so 100 is the correct number of miles for when Value equals Best Rent.
