The tuition costs, C, for a local community college are modeled by C(h) = 250 + 200h, where h represents the number of credit ho

urs taken. The local state university has tuition costs, S, modeled by the function S(h) = 300 + 180h. 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. 250 + 200h = 300 + 180h 250 + 200h = 300 + 180h − 180h − 180h 250 + 20h = 300 h = credit hours

Result:

2.5

Process Description: I just resolved it, and it was correct. Subtracting 250 from 300 gives 50, which when divided by 20 equals 2.5. The division by 20 is necessary to isolate h in the equation 20h.
