Answer:

when expenses are greater than $433.33

Step-by-step explanation:

set up equations for each plan

let 'x' = prescription costs

Plan 1:  y = 150 + .5x

Plan 2:  y = 280 + .2x

150 + .5x = 280 + .2x

.5x = 130 + .2x

.3x = 130

x = 433.33

i checked my answer by graphing each equation and $433.33 is the break-even point where each plan would have the same costs but, after that, the expenses for Plan B are less

Answer: v=-18/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you want to solve for v, we need to use our algebraic properties.

\frac{v}{3}+2=\frac{4}{5}                 [subtract both sides by 2]

\frac{v}{3}=-\frac{6}{5}                    [multiply both sides by 3]

v=-\frac{18}{5}

Now, we know that v=-18/5.
