How many credit hours will a student have to take for the two tuition costs to be equal?

How many credit hours will a student have to take for the two tuition costs to be equal? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.

Answer

To find the number of credit hours where the tuition costs are equal, set the two equations equal to each other:

  1. 250 + 200h = 300 + 180h
  2. Subtract 180h from both sides: 250 + 20h = 300
  3. Subtract 250 from both sides: 20h = 50
  4. Divide by 20: h = 2.5

The student will need to take 2.5 credit hours for the tuition costs to be equal.
