Solve this math problem...Which cab charged more?

Cab A charged $5x + 20 for a ride to the airport from the mall and Cab B charged $4x + 50 for the same ride. Which cab charged more? How much more?

I'm not doing your homework for you.

It depends. That's the wonderful thing about vairables.

quote:exactly...Here is my answer: if x = 30, then they charged the same. If x > 30, then Cab A charged more. If x < 30, then Cab B charged more.
All depends on what x is
It is as if this question was expecting an actual number for an answer.

Cab B, assuming x means number of people

Assuming x= miles
Say it is 10 miles for the trip
A = $70
B = $90
Say it is 10 miles for the trip
A = $70
B = $90

Take Uber or Lyft. They tell you the charge and do not make you do all that math.
