Answer:

The prices are the same when the package weighs 3 pounds.

Explanation:

So basically we want to know when they're equal so we line up a equation like this:

$14+$2x=$20+$1.50x

We want to move over the x to one side of the equation.

2x-1.50x=20-14

Simplify

.5x=6

x=3

So the price is the same when the package weighs 3 pounds.
