Respuesta :

they will each cost $340 I think

Answer:

Let's consider:

Car rent function: [tex]C(x)=240+0.25x[/tex]

Minivan rent function: [tex]M(x)=180+0.40x[/tex]

[tex]C(x)=M(x)[/tex]

[tex]240+0.25x=180+0.40x[/tex]

[tex]60=0.15x\\x=400[/tex]

Finally:  After how many miles is the total charge for each vehicle the same?

After 400 miles.
