Ian wants to promote his band on the internet. Site a offers website hosting for $4.95 per month with a $49.99 startup fee. Site b offers website hosting for $9.95 per month with no startup fee. Write and solve an inequality to determine how many months lan could have his wedsite on site b and still keep his total cost less than site a

I believe for twelve (12) months.

Site A: $49.95 plus $59.40 (4.95 x 12) equals $109.35

Site B: $9.95 x 12 equals $119.40

No, wait that's not right.

Okay, at 8 months, site A is pretty much at $90 (forget the nickels) and site B is $80 so site B is less.

At 7 months, site A is $85 and site B is $70 so site B is less.

At 9 months, site A is $95 and site B is $90 so site B is less.

At 10 months, site A $100 and site B is $100

It's got to be around 10 months somewhere.

Ten months would be $99.45 for site A and $99.50 for site B so B is less.

Eleven months is $104.40 for A and $109.45 for B so now B is more.
