Question

Dawn and her brother, David want to rent bikes to ride up and

down the boardwalk. One rental shop, Bargain Bikes,
advertises rates of $50 plus 15 cents per minute. A second
shop, Frugal Wheels, advertises no flat fee, but 25 cents per
minute. After how many minutes will the cost be the same?

ANSWER PLEASE

Answer 1

500 minutes

Explanation:

Create an equation that sets the prices equal to each other, where x is the number of minutes

0.15x + 50 = 0.25x

Solve for x

50 = 0.1x

500 = x

So, the cost will be the same after 500 minutes
