T-Mobile charges a flat fee of $20 plus $10 per Gig of data used per month. AT&T charges $60 for an unlimiteddata use. How many Gigs of data would you have to use so that the cost will be the same for both companies?

For this case we can set uo an equation given by:


y=10x+20

Where y represent the final cost. x the number of Gig used and for this case we can set up the following equation:


60=10x+20

And solving for x we got:


x=(60-20)/(10)=(40)/(10)=4

And the final answer for this case woudl be 4 Gig of data used
