Problem Page Alonzo will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $49.98 and costs an additional $0.12 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of $35.98 and costs an additional $0.17 per mile driven. How many miles would Alonzo need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?

You would start with the equation:Let m=number of miles

49.98+0.12m=35.98+0.17m

Then solve for m

You would then get

49.98+0.12m=35.98+0.17m
          -0.12m           -0.12m
 49.98=35.98+0.05m
-35.98  -35.98
14  = 0.05m
----    --------
0.05   0.05

280=m
