Greg is considering two different plans for music downloads.
How many tracks purchased would make plan A the better option?
--------------------------------------
Plan A- $0.97 per track purchased plus $10.00/month unlimited PC streaming plus $15.00/month for downloading songs to an MP3 player
A(x) = 0.97x + 10*12 + 15*12
--------------------------------------
Plan B- $0.99 per track purchased plus $9.00/month unlimited PC streaming plus $144.00/year for downloading songs to an MP3 player
B(x) = 0.99x + 9*12 + 144
--------------------------------------
Solve A(x) < B(x)
0.97x+25*12 < 0.99x+108+144
---
0.97x + 300 < 0.99x+ 252
---
48 < 0.02x
x > 2400 tracks
