Dipesh is looking at two different options for a new video rental plan. Plan A has a fee of $7.95 plus an additional fee of $1.25 per rental. With this plan, the first 2 rentals are free. Plan B has a fee of $5.00 plus an additional fee of $3.90 per rental. With this plan, the first 6 rentals are free. After how many rentals would both options cost the same amount?

The number of rentals would have to be 9.

1.25 • 7 = 8.75
3.90 • 3 = 11.70

Plan A = 2 free rentals + 7 rentals = 9
Plan B = 6 free rentals + 3 rentals = 9

Hope this helped!
