Question 437829: Could some one please show me how to finish this problem?
Bayside Insurance offers two health plans. Under plan A, Giselle would pay the first $130 of her medical bills, plus 40% of the rest. Under plan B, Giselle would pay the first $220, but only 35% of the rest.For what amount of medical bills will plan B save Giselle money? Assume she has over $220 in bills.
130+.40 x(x-130)
220 + .35 x(x-220)
130 + .40(x-130)=220 + .35 x(x-220)

Plan A:130+40%x
Plan B:220+35%x
Comparing:
220+.35x<130+.4x
90<.05x
90/.05
1800
Plan B is cheaper when you have over $1800 worth of medical bills.
