Correct Question :
- Two Different Streaming Services.
- Streaming Service A has a starting fee of $25 and then charges $5 per month.
- Netflix has a starting fee of $7 and then charges $8 per month.
- How many months will it take for both of them to charge same? what will be the charge?
AnswEr :
• Let's Head to the Question Now :
Let's Assume the Cost be c when they both will charge same and Month be m.
⋆ Streaming Service A :
⇝ Cost = Fixed Fee + (Charge × Month)
⇝ c = 25 + (5 × m)
⇝ c = 25 + 5m⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀—eq. ( I )
⋆ Netflix :
⇝ Cost = Fixed Fee + (Charge × Month)
⇝ c = 7 + (8 × m)
⇝ c = 7 + 8m⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀—eq. ( II )
_________________________________
• from eq.( I ) and eq.( II ), we get :
⇒ 25 + 5m = 7 + 8m
- LHS is Equal, So RHS will be Equal too
⇒ 25 - 7 = 8m - 5m
⇒ 18 = 3m
- Dividing Both term by 3
⇒ m = 6 Months
After 6 Month Both Streaming Services will charge the same price.
• putting the Value of m in eq.( I ) :
⇒ c = 25 + 5m
⇒ c = 25 + (5 × 6)
⇒ c = 25 + 30
⇒ c = $55
∴ Both will charge $55 after 6 Months.
- streaming service A Fixed fees = $25
- streaming service A per month fees = $5
- netflix Fixed fees = $8
- netflix per month fees = $8
- m = months
- c = Total cost
it is given that, after m months both will charge same amount..
Total cost of stream service is :---
→ c = 25 + 5×m ---------------- Equation (1)
as ,
Total cost = Fixed charge + per month charge× Number of months .
Total cost of Netflix now :-
→ c = 8 + 8×m ---------------- Equation (2)
Now, it has been said that, both will get, same amonut after m months .
so,
25+5m = 8 + 8m
→ 25 - 8 = 8m - 5m
→ 17 = 3m
→ m = (17/3) months ..
Now, we have to Find Total cost they charged , in these months ,
putting in any Equation now, we get,
C = 8 + 8m
→ C = 8 + 8(25/3)
→ C = 8 + 200/3
→ C =$ (224/3) or , $74.67 ...
So, we can say that, according to your data , they take (17/3) months for same charge , and their same charge after this time will be $74.67 .....
