Linda 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 $128 and allows unlimited mileage. company b has an initial fee of $65 and charges an additional $0.90 for every mile driven. for what mileages will company a charge less than company b? use m for the number of miles driven, and solve your inequality for m.

70 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

128-65/.9=m

128-65=63

63/.9=70 miles

70<or equal to m

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
