What is the linear system?

A Linear system is a system in which the degree of the variable in the equation is one. It may contain one, two, or more than two variables.

Car rental agency A charges $50 per day plus 10 cents per mile driven. Agency B charges $20 per day plus 30 cents per mile driven.

Let x be the number of miles and y be the total rental cost.

Then the equations will be

y = 0.10x + 50 ...1

y = 0.30x + 20 ...2

By solving equations 1 and 2, we have

x = 150 and y = 65

For a one-day rental, it is cheaper to rent from agency A if you drive more than 150 miles.
