You have been evaluating cell phone providers. Double Mint Mobile has a $100 startup
fee and costs $30 per month for a cell phone plan. BT&T has a $20 startup fee and costs
$50 per month for a similar cell phone plan.
After how many months will both cell phone plans cost the same?

Answer:

4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of months

Double Mint Mobile = 100 + 30x

BT&T = 20 + 50x

After how many months will both cell phone plans cost the same?

Equate the cost of both phone plans

Double Mint Mobile = BT&T

100 + 30x = 20 + 50x

100 - 20 = 50x - 30x

80 = 20x

x = 80/20

x = 4 months

Number of months = 4 months
