You have a choice of two different Internet Service companies: AOL and Yahoo. One of AOL’s plans charges $19.99 for a month and a charge of $2.00 per hour. Yahoo’s similar plan offers service for only $14.99 a month and a charge
of $2.50 per hour. How many hours would you need to use the internet for the charges to be equal? What would the
monthly charge be?

First, you’re starting equation should look something like this:
19.99+2h= 14.99+2.50h
H equaling hours
You would then subtract 2h from 2.50h, so now you’re equation will look like this:
19.99=14.99+0.50h
Then, subtract 14.99 from 19.99. The equation should look like:
5=0.50h
Finally, divided 0.50h to 5 to get 10
10=h
You’re finally answer should be, It would take 10 hours for the Internet cost to be equal. The monthly charge would then be 39.99. You can find your answer by replacing h on either sides or your starting equation and insert 10.
