Let \"+n+\" = number of minutes of calls
\n" ); document.write( "!st plan:
\n" ); document.write( "cost = \"+19+%2B+.13n+\"
\n" ); document.write( "2nd plan:
\n" ); document.write( "cost = \"+11+%2B+.17n+\"
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Make the costs for the 2 plans equal
\n" ); document.write( "\"+19+%2B+.13n+=+11+%2B+.17n+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.04n+=+19+-+11+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.04n+=+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+n+=+200+\"
\n" ); document.write( "For 200 minutes of calls, the plans are equal
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( " \"+19+%2B+.13%2A200+=+19+%2B+26+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+19+%2B+26+=+45+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " \"+11+%2B+.17%2A200+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+11+%2B+34+=+45+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
