Answer:

m > 82.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Price to Pay (P)

distance (m)

Company A

Pa = 0.80m

Company B

Pb = 65 + 0.01m

Company A charge more than B is written like this

0.8m > 65 + 0.01m

then we can solve this inequality

(0.8 - 0.01)m > 65

0.79m > 65

m > 65/0.79

m > 82.28 miles

so if Maya will go more than 82.28 miles, I suggest Company B is cheaper
