Margo can purchase tile at a store for $.99 per tile and rent a tile saw for $10. At another store she can borrow the tile saw for free if she buys tiles there for $1.49 per tile. How many tiles mushy by for the cost to be the same at both stores?

The indifference point is 20 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to establish the total cost formulas for each store:

Store 1:

Total cost= 10 + 0.99*x

Store 2:

Total cost= 1.49*x

x= number of tiles

Now, we equal both formulas and isolate x:

10 + 0.99x = 1.49x

10= 0.5x

10/0.5=x

20=x

The indifference point is 20 tiles.
