Sara is moving into a new apartment. The Resort complex charges a $600 security deposit and costs $950 a month for rent. The Uptown Suites Duplex charges a $300
security deposit and costs $1100 a month for rent. After how many months would the
apartments cost the same amount? Which apartment would you recommend Sara move
to if she plans on staying for 6 months? Please show work!

1) 2 months

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 950x + 600

y = 1100x + 300

950x + 600 = 1100x + 300

-950x -950x

subtract slope from both sides

600 = 150x + 300 ( doesn't matter which one)

-300 - 300

subtract

300 = 150x

Divide each # with the slope

150 = 150

2 = x

Answer 2

The Resort Complex would save you 300.

step-by-step solution:

you have to do is plug in the number of months.

then multiply

then subtract both Complexes

and compare

The Resort Complex. : y = 950(6) + 600 - 6300

The uptown suite duplex : y = 1100(6) + 300 - 6900

HOPE THIS HELPS!
