______________________ A)Write an equation that shows how much towing company A
charges in terms of the numbers of days of storage,d. The variable C represents the total cost.
C=_________ (Do not Factor) -Write an quation that shows how much towing company B
charges in terms of the numbers of days of storage,d.The variable C represents the total cost. C=
_________ (Do not Factor) B) Both companies will charge the same for d=__ day(s) (Round the
nearest integer as needed)
Solution
a) A = 200+45*d
B = 300+20*d
B) we want A = B
200+45*d = 300+20*d
15*d = 100
t=7 days
