Well, lets add 0.125 to 4.1.
We would get 4.225.
Finally we can check.
4.225-0.125= 4.1
How did we get it? What i did is I did the opposite. Instead of subtracting 0.125 I added it.
N= 4.225
Both of these lines share the relationship together of being parallel.
Cost of company A=monthlyfee+text=20+0.03t where t=number of texts
A=20+0.03t
company b is monthlyfee+texts=5+0.07t
B=5+0.07t
1.
c=20+0.03t
c=5+0.07t
using c for cost is confusing because we can't tell which is for which company
2.
equal, means the costs are equal so
20+0.03t=5+0.07t
minus 5 from both sides
15+0.03t=0.07t
minus 0.03t from both sides
15=0.04t
divide both sides by 0.04
375=t
the answer is 375 texts
