Help!!!!! Emily uses her college photocopier machine to photocopy at the rate of $0.08 per page. She decides to rent a photocopier machine for $90 a year. The cost of photocopying using the rented machine is $0.03 per page. Part A: Write an inequality that can be used to calculate the number of pages that Emily should photocopy in a year so that the amount she pays for the rented machine is less than the college machine. Define the variable used. (5 points) Part B: How many pages should Emily print in a year to justify renting the photocopier? Show your work. (5 points)
I'm thinking Part A is 0.08p>90+0.03p. Is this right?
Can someone PLEASE help?

Yay!
Can you help me with Part B?
u created the equation just find p
Do I subtract .03p from both sides?
yes of cos
so that would be 0.05p > 90?
\(\large\tt \color{black}{\checkmark}\)
that would make it p > 1800. right?
