Answer:

Ian need to keep the website for site B less than 10 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of months

y ----> the cost for website hosting

we know that

Site A

[tex]y=4.95x+49.95[/tex] -----> equation A

Site B

[tex]y=9.95x[/tex] -----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

[tex]9.95x=4.95x+49.95[/tex]

[tex]9.95x-4.95x=49.95[/tex]

[tex]5x=49.95[/tex]

[tex]x=9.99\ months[/tex]

Round the number of months

[tex]x=10\ months[/tex]

For x=10 months ----> the cost for website hosting is the same in both sites

For x>10 months ---> the cost for website hosting is less expensive in site A

For x<10 months ---> the cost for website hosting is less expensive in site B

therefore

Ian need to keep the website for site B less than 10 months
