Answer:

2month and 2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the first plan has a $50 sign-up

fee and costs $20 per month.

let the number of months be x, and the total cost be y

y=20x+50---------1

The second plan has a $30 sign-up fee and costs $25 per

let the number of months be x, and the total cost be y

y=30x+25---------2

Equate the two equations we have

20x+50=30x+25

solve for x, collect like terms

50-25=30x-20x

25=10x

divide both sides by 10

x= 25/10

x=2.5 months

x= 2month and 2 weeks
