Answer:

(B) $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Big Video: y = 2.49x + 9.99

Main Street: y = 1.79x + 20.49

easiest way to solve would be to graph and find the point of intersection or set 2.49x + 9.99 and 1.79x + 20.49 equal to each other

2.49x + 9.99 = 1.79x + 20.49

subtract 1.79x from each side to get:

.70x + 9.99 = 20.49

subtract 9.99 from each side to get:

.70x = 10.50

divide each side by .70

x = 15
