You need to hire a catering company to serve meals to guests at a wedding reception. Company A charges $500 plus $20 per guest. Company B charges $800 plus $16 per guest. For how many guests are the total costs the same at both companies?
Set up the Cost equations for both companies where g is the number of guests:
g = 75
Set up the Cost equations for both companies where g is the number of guests:
- C(a) = 20g + 500
- C(b) = 16g + 800
g = 75
