Answer 1

Answer:

Uptown towing company: 60 + 25d

Downtown towing company: 75 + 20d

Step-by-step explanation:

Uptown towing company: 60 + 25d

Downtown towing company: 75 + 20d

Where d = number of days

60 + 25d

75 + 20d

Equate both equations

60 + 25d = 75 + 20d

60 - 75 = 20d - 25d

-15 = -5d

d = -15/-5

d = 3
