Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the number of copies above which Company A's charges are higher, set up an equation where the total cost of Company A equals the total cost of Company B and solve for the number of copies (x). For Company A, the cost is $160 + 0.08x, and for Company B, it's $320 + 0.04x. Setting them equal: $160 + 0.08x = $320 + 0.04x. Solving for x gives x = 4000 copies.
