Answer:
B) (-3, 5) and (1, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is 1 and 1/3 of rice
Make an algebraic expression for each plan.
For an instance, x represents the number of movies, and y represents the number of months
⇒ The expression for the digital movie plan is 3x
⇒ The expression for the DVD plan is 10y + 0.5x
A person rents movies in a month (that means the value of y equals 1), the expression of the DVD plan would be 10(1) + 0.5x = 10 + 0.5x
Find the value of x when the cost of both plan are the same
The two options will cost the same when the expression for digital movie is equal to the expression for DVD
the digital movie plan = the DVD plan
3x = 10 + 0.5x
Solve for x
3x - 0.5x = 10
2.5x = 10
x = 10/2.5
x = 4
The two options will cost the same, if the person rents 4 movies
Combine the x terms:
11x-10=180
Add Both sides by 10:
11x=190
Divide both sides by 11:
X=190/11
