Bayside insurance offers two health plans. Under plan A,Giselle would have to pay the first $120 of her medical bills, plus 40% of the rest. Under plan B, she would pay the first $140, but only 25% of the rest. For what amount of medical bills would plan B save her money? Assume she has over $140 in bills

Question

anonymous · Answer

find the break even point by setting the two equations equal.  if x is the amount of her medical bills for the first plan she would pay 
$$120+.40x$$ and for the second would pay 
$$140+.25x$$ so write 
$$120+.40x=140+.25x$$ and solve for x via 
$$.15x=20$$
$$x=\frac{12}{.15}=133.3$$

round to the nearest whole number, and its not 133

Solve the following equation for x:$$130+\frac{40}{100}x=140+\frac{25}{100}x $$x, the break even point, = 200/3 or $66.67 rounded.$$\frac{200}{3}<x $$
