We-Haul rents a moving truck for $20.00 and $0.45 per mile. You-Haul rents the same size moving truck for $1.00 per mile but with no upfront charge. Write 2 equations to represent the situation.

Equations representing situation

We-Haul, (20 + 0.45 x) $

You-Haul, 1.00 x $ where x is the distance traveled in miles.

Explanation;

Let the distance traveled in mile be x.

We-Haul rents a moving truck for $20.00 and $0.45 per mile.

Rental cost gain by We-Haul when truck travels x miles = (20 + 0.45 x) $

You-Haul rents the same size moving truck for $1.00 per mile

Rental cost gain by You-Haul when truck travels x miles = 1.00 x $

Equations representing situation

We-Haul, (20 + 0.45 x) $

You-Haul, 1.00 x $ where x is the distance traveled in miles.
