Concept explainers
The cost to rent a 10 ft by 10 ft storage space is different for two different storage companies. The Storage Bin charges $90 per month plus a nonrefundable deposit of $120. AAA Storage charges $110 per month with no deposit. The total cost, y, to rent a 10 ft by 10 ft space depends on the number of months, x, according to the equations
The Storage Bin:
AAA Storage:
From the graph, determine the number of months required for which the cost to rent space is equal for both companies.
