Answer 1

X > 31 ads

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 0.07x = 1.5 + 0.12x

1.5 = 0.05x

30=x

It will be cheaper to buy from company B with 29 ads and the same price at 30 ads and cheaper for Company A at 31 ads.

Correct ''A'' is cheaper than ''B'' because flat rate of 3 plus 7 cent per word meaning ''B'' flat rate of 1.50 plus 12 and uu would rather pay 1.20 than 1.50
