Question

For how many minutes of calls with the cost of the two plans be equal?

Answer 1

Let x = the number of minutes of calls

For Plan 1, we know that the monthly charge is 8 + 0.18x

For Plan 2, the monthly charge is 23 + 0.14x

To determine when the cost of the two plans will be equal, we set up the following equation:

8 + 0.18x = 23 + 0.14x

Can you solve for x, Alyssa?
