Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A Total Cost:  Ca = $74

Company B Total Cost:  Cb = $65+$0.60m, where m is the miles driven.

We want to find for what values of m with Company A charge less than Company B:

Ca < Cb  ?

$74 < $65 + $0.60m

$9 < $0.60m

15 < m

m > 15 miles

Company A will cost less than Company B when less than 15 miles are driven.  The costs are the same for 15 miles and higher for Company B beyond 15 miles.
