The second plan has no monthly fee but charges $0.19 for each minute of calls. For how many minutes of calls will the costs of the two plans be equal?

Answer:

460 minutes, or 7 hours and 20 minutes.

Explanation:

Your formula is 0.14x+23=0.19x

X represents your minutes.

0.14*460+23=87.4

0.19*460=87.4
