Question

You are renting some tables for a party and have to choose between two different rental companies. The first charges $15 per table. The second charges $40 plus $11 per table. Based on this information , the second company is cheaper if you rent more than _____ tables.

Answer 1

10

Explanation:

15x = 40 + 11x

4x = 40

x = 10

10 tables they would cost the same, so more than 10 tables would make the second company cheaper
