Verizon charges a $40 sign up fee and $60 a month for their new hotspot. T-Mobile charges a $100 sign up fee and then $40 per month for their new hotspot. After how many months of service will the two company's fees be the same?

Respuesta :

It will take 3 months for both company's fees be the same

Let

y = total charges

x = number of months

Verizon:

y = 40 + 60x

T-Mobile:

y = 100 + 40x

Number of months it will take both companies to charge the same fee

Equate the total charges of both companies

40 + 60x = 100 + 40x

40 - 100 = 40x - 60x

-60 = - 20x

x = -60 / -20

x = 3 months
