Can someone help me write out this equation? You need to choose between two telephone plans for local calls. Plan A charges $25 per month for unlimited calls. Plan B has a monthly fee of $13 with a charge of $0.06 per local call. How many local telephone calls in a month make Plan A the better deal?

I know that 200 calls would make the phone plans equal... i just don't know how to write it out and show my work

\[y=25\]\[y=13+.06x\] where \(y\) is the cost and \(x\) is the number of minutes used set \(25=13+.06x\) and solve for \(x\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get \[25=13+.06x\] \[12=.06x\] \[x=12\div.06=1200\div 6=200\]
