Game Go charges $0.79 per game rental and a membership fee of $24. Action Games charges $1.19 per game rental. With how many game rentals would the cost be the same for both stores?

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

0.79x + 24 = 1.19x

Reorder the terms:

24 + 0.79x = 1.19x

Solving

24 + 0.79x = 1.19x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1.19x' to each side of the equation.

24 + 0.79x + -1.19x = 1.19x + -1.19x

Combine like terms: 0.79x + -1.19x = -0.4x

24 + -0.4x = 1.19x + -1.19x

Combine like terms: 1.19x + -1.19x = 0.00

24 + -0.4x = 0.00

Add '-24' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24 + -0.4x = 0.00 + -24

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0

0 + -0.4x = 0.00 + -24

-0.4x = 0.00 + -24

Combine like terms: 0.00 + -24 = -24

-0.4x = -24

Divide each side by '-0.4'.

x = 60

Simplifying

x = 60
