Both of the companies can be represented by an equation. The first company being f(a) and the second company bring f(b).
f(a)=$0.06x+65
f(b)=$0.10x+48
We want to find where they are equal, so we can set the equations equal to each other.
$0.06x+65=$0.10x+48
From here we can simplify the equation.
17=$0.04x
425=x
