You need to choose between two telephone plans for local calls. plan a charges $25 per month for unlimited calls. plan b has a monthly fee of $13 with a charge of $0.06 per local call. how many local telephone calles in a month make plan a the better deal??
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"x\" be the number of local calls.
\n" ); document.write( "Plan A: will cost $25 per month
\n" ); document.write( "Plan B: will cost $(13 + 0.06x)
\n" ); document.write( "When is Plan B a better deal??
\n" ); document.write( "When Plan B cost is less than Plan A cost.
\n" ); document.write( "13+0.06x < 25
\n" ); document.write( "0.06x < 12
\n" ); document.write( "x < 200
\n" ); document.write( "So, as long as the number of local calls in a month
\n" ); document.write( "is less than 200, Plan B will be a better Plan.
