ny,ny · Answer

uhm yeah but first i got y= 6.25 and x= 12.5. is that right?

anonymous · Answer

I don't know how they want you to show it, I just set up the equations for each of them separately.  Then I filled in x for say 50 fliers and solved each. Then I did it for 100 fliers too.  Each time the second one .1x + 5 to be the better one
