You just purchased a cellular phone and are trying to decide the best cellular phone company in which to give your business. When you contacted the Talks-A-Lot Company, they were offering a monthly plan of $40 for 500 minutes and $0.25 for each minute exceeding the 500 minutes. In the Sunday paper you see an ad for the Chat-Away Company, which offers a monthly plan of $35 for 500 minutes and $0.30 for each minute exceeding the 500 minutes. How many minutes would you have to talk over and above the 500 minutes for the cost to be the same with both companies? What would be the equal cost?
