I'm not sure what this question means exactly, maybe the principals goal is unrealistic?
Hence, the value of x=8

Answer:
Model B has 6 shaded sections
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete. The complete question should be in the form:
Victor has 2 fraction models. Each is divided into equal sized sections the models are shaded to represent the same fraction. Model A is divided into 6 sections and 3 sections are shaded. Model B is divided into 12 sections. What do you know about the number of sections shaded in Model B? Explain your answer.
Solution:
The fraction modeled by model A is given by the ratio of shaded sections to the total number of sections.
That is Fraction of model A = number of shaded sections / total number of sections.
Hence:
Fraction of model A = 3 / 6
Since model B and Model A are equivalent, the number of shaded sections in Model A is given by:
number of shaded sections in model B/ total number of sections in model B = Fraction of model A
number of shaded sections in model B / 12 = 3 / 6
number of shaded sections in model B = 12 * 3/6
number of shaded sections in model B = 6
Answer: Company A would be a better deal for number of minutes over 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of minutes that you would use with either company A or company B.
Company A has a monthly charge of $10 plus 5¢ a minute for each minute of long distance calls. It means that the cost of x minutes of long distance call is
10 + 0.05x
Company B has a monthly charge of $8 plus 6¢ a minute for long distance calls. It means that the cost of x minutes of long distance call is 10 + 0.05x
8 + 0.06x
For Company A to be a better deal, it means that
10 + 0.05x < 8 + 0.06x
10 - 8 < 0.06x - 0.05x
2 < 0.01x
0.01x > 2
x > 2/0.01
x > 200
