Question

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $24.00 plus an additional $0.14 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $14.00 plus an additional $0.16 for each minute of calls.For what amount of calling do the two plans cost the same?

Answer 1

Answer:

500 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for A: C = 0.14t+24

Equation for B: C = 0.16t+14  (t is time in minutes and C is cost)

To find the value of t where both values are the same, we make the equations equal to each other.

0.14t+24=0.16t+14

0.02t=10

t=500
