To have the same cost at both companies, the number of stickers will have to be 40

Company A :

Design Fee = $30

Costvper sticker = $0.80

Company B :

Design Fee = $14

Cost per sticker = $1.20

Let the number of stickers = p

Total cost of company A = 30 + 0.80p

Total cost of company B = 14 + 1.20p

For the cost to be the same :

Company A = Company B

30 + 0.80p = 14 + 1.20p

Collect like terms :

30 - 14 = 1.20p - 0.80p

16 = 0.40p

Divide both sides by 0.40

p = 16/0.40

p = 40 stickers

Therefore, to have the same price, 40 stickers will have to be ordered.
