Given

Installation fee Price permonth

$60.00 $42.95

$25.00 $49.95

Solution

We are to find when would pay the same total amount for each internet service.


60+42.95x=25+49.95x

We are going to find the x which represents the month to have same amount


\begin{gathered} 42.95x-49.95x=25-60 \\ -7x=-35 \\ divide\text{ both sides by -7} \\ (-7x)/(-7)=-(35)/(-7) \\ \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

That means the fifth month
