Andrew is having an irrigation system installed in his yard. Company A charges $1250 plus $15 per sprinkler head. Company B charges $1200 plus $17 per sprinkler head. How many sprinkler heads will Andrew need to have to make Company A a better deal?
Answer provided by our tutors
Company A charges 1250 + 15 per sprinkler
Company B charges 1200 +17 per sprinkler
To give better deal from A
1250+number*15=1200+number*17
2*number=50
Number =25
So min 25 need to purchase from A to atleast normalize the benifit
