Rent-A-Tent rents party tents for a flat fee of $365 plus $125 a day. Capital Rentals rents party tents for a flat fee of $250 plus $175 day. Delia wrote the following equation to find the number of days for which the total cost charged by the two companies would be the same. 365x + 125 = 250x = 175

(find the error is Delia's work)
