company a charges $93 and allows unlimited mileage.
company b has an initial fee of $75 and charges an additional $0.90 for every mile driven.
for what mileages will company a charge less than company b?
use m for the number of miles driven, and solve your inequality for m.

Let \(m\) be the number of miles.
Cost of Company A: \(C_A = 93\) (since unlimited mileage)
Cost of Company B: \(C_B=75 + 0.9m\)
We want to find when \(C_A

Step2: Solve the inequality
