Christine will rent a car for the weekend. She can choose one of two plans. The first plan has no initial fee but costs $0.60 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of $50 and costs an additional $0.40 per mile driven. How many miles would Christine need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?

Christine needs to drive 250 miles for the two plans to cost the same

Step-by-step explanation:

For answering the question correctly and helping Christine, we will use the following equation:

x = number of miles driven

Cost of the first plan = 0.60x

Cost of the second plan = 50 + 0.40x

How many miles would Christine need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?

Cost of the first plan = Cost of the second plan

0.60x = 50 + 0.40x

0.60x - 0.40x = 50 (Subtracting 0.40x at both sides)

0.20x = 50

x = 50/0.2

x = 250 miles driven

Christine needs to drive 250 miles for the two plans to cost the same.
