Question

cable costs $50 for installation and $100 a month. satellite costs $200 for installation and $70 a month. what month will the cost be the same ?

Answer 1

it would be month 5 because 50+100+200=350 and 350 divided by 70 is 5 so it takes 5 months to pay $350 in cable

Answer 2

Answer: The cost will be the same on month 5.

Explanation:

x = number of months

50 + 100(x) = $550

200 + 70(x) = $550

x = 5
