Question 832825: Hello,
My question is:
You are choosing between two plans at a discount warehouse.
Plan A offers an annual membership fee of $110 and you pay 30% of manufacturers recommended list price. Plan B offers an annual membership fee of $50 and you pay 80% of manufacturers recommended list price.
How many dollars of merchandise would you have to purchase in a year to pay the same amount under both plans?
What would the cost be for both plans?
Thanks in advance!

110+.3x=50+.8x
x = 120
over 120 plan A is cheaper
under 120 Plan B is cheaper
