At Wolf-M-Up, Cost = 17.50 + 2.25(number of days)

At Fangs-R-Us, Cost = 24.25 + 1.5(number of days)

The costs are the same when [ 17.50 + 2.25 D = 24.25 + 1.5 D ].

Subtract 1.5D from each side: 17.50 + 0.75 D = 24.25

Subtract 17.50 from each side: 0.75 D = 6.75

Divide each side by 0.75 : D = 9 days

Substitute 9 for the number of days at either company,
and the cost is $37.75 .

If you only want the wolf for a few days, then Wolf-M-Up is cheaper.

If you plan to keep it for more than 9 days, then Fangs-R-Us will cost less.

For exactly 9 days, both wolves will cost the same $37.75 .
