Question

Nicole compares two printing plans for business cards. Which equation gives the correct value of , the number of business cards, for which Plans A and B cost the same?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.10(n)=25+0.05(n-200)

Explanation:

The number of business cards are n

Plan A: No initial fee and $0.10 for each business card

Plan B: $25 for the first 200 business cards
and surplus of $0.05 for each additional card

As n is total business cards
so from plan A equation is

0.10(n)

from plan B

25 + 0.05(n-200) if n > 200

Now as a whole the equation for no of business cards would be

0.10(n)=25+0.05(n-200)
