Question

identify an equation you can use to find in which month, x, you would pay the same total for each internet service. solve the equation to find the month when you would pay the same total amount for each internet service

Answer 1

The amount paid for both internet service will be equal after 5 months.

The given values for the two companies include the following;

                          Installation fee         price per month

Company A       $60.00                     $42.95

Company B        $25.00                     $49.95

Let the month in which you will pay the same total amount = x

• The total amount pay for company A = 60   +  42.95x

• The total amount pay for company B = 25   +  49.95x

Since the total amount paid will be equal, the final equation becomes;

60   +  42.95x  = 25   +  49.95x

The value of x is calculated as follows;

$(49.95 - 42.95)x = 60- 25\\\\7x = 35\\\\x = \frac{35}{7} \\\\x = 5$

Thus, the amount paid for both internet service will be equal after 5 months.

Answer 2

We are to find an equation you can use to find in which month, x, you would pay the same total for each internet service.

The equation is 60 + 42.95x = 25 + 49.95x and the number of months when you would pay the same total amount for each internet service is 5 months

let

x = number of months

Company A

Installment fee = $60.00

price per month = $42.95

Total cost = 60 + 42.95x

Company B

Installment fee = $25.00

Price per month = $49.95

Total cost = 25 + 49.95x

The equation: Equate total cost of company A and company B

60 + 42.95x = 25 + 49.95x

60 - 25 = 49.95x - 42.95x

35 = 7x

Divide both sides by 8

x = 35/7

x = 5 months
