Problema Solution
Company A rents copiers for a monthly charge of $250 plus 10 cents per copy.
Company B rents copiers for a monthly charge of $500 plus 5 cents per copy. What is
the number of copies for which Company A's charges are higher than Company B's
charges of the two?
Answer provided by our tutors
The number of copies is x
The inequality is
250+0.1x>500+0.05x
We solve it
x>5000
So when number of copies is greater than 5000, Company A's charges are higher than Company B's charges
