Not too sure on this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a jet ski company charges a flat fee of $20.00 plus $2.25 per hour to rent a jet ski. Another company charges a fee of $23.00 plus $2.75 per hour to rent the same jet ski. Using a graphing calculator, find the number of hours for which the costs are the same. Round your answer to the nearest whole hour.

Hello : )

OpenStudy (karatechopper):

What type of graphing calculator do you have?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh? I am not too sure...I am using the computer thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is 2 hours but I am not too sure.

OpenStudy (karatechopper):

Hm... does it have a trace function on there?

OpenStudy (karatechopper):

Do you know how to input the equations into your calculator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@karatechopper

OpenStudy (karatechopper):

Input both equations and look for a trace function in which it will find the intersecting point on both lines.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is 2 hours.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that correct??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't really think that is right.
