Question

Phone Company A charges a monthly fee of $24.60, and $0.04 for each minute of talk time. Phone Company B charges a monthly fee of $20.00, and $0.06 for each minute of talk time. These two companies would charge the same amount on a monthly bill when the talk time was_____ minutes

Answer 1

Let x = number of minutes

 

Company A = 0.04x + 24.60

Company B = 0.06x + 20

 

Set Company A equal to Company B.

 

0.04x + 24.60 = 0.06x + 20

 

Solve for x.
