10 + .05x = 25 + .025x
We make the two deals equal to each other and then solve for x. Solve for x and you get 600. Hope this helps!

asked 04/16/20A company offers two different plans for high-speed video transfers. Plan A charges a $10 monthly fee plus 5 cents per transfer. Plan B charges a $25 monthly fee plus 2.5 cents per transfer. After how many transfers does the second plan become less money for that month?

A: y = 5x + 10
B: y = 2.5x + 25
2.5x + 25 < 5x + 10
-2.5x < -15
x > 6
The company will need more than 6 transfers in order for Plan B to be cheaper than Plan A.

25 + 0.025t < 10 + 0.05t
Can you solve for t and answer?

Let x = number of transfers
Plan A: y=10+0.05x
Plan B: y=25+0.025x
If you want to know when Plan B is less,
Plan B < Plan A
25+0.025x < 10+0.05x
Can you solve the equation for x?
