Question:

The members of the league will tell you how many hours of court time they would like for you to purchase each month. Your job is to find the least expensive way of buying the required amount of court time.

Plan B: Buy a Basic Membership to use the facility. Here you pay a membership fee of $100 per month, with an additional charge of $10 per hour of court time.
Plan C: Buy a Preferred Membership. This requires your league to pay a monthly fee of $250, with an additional charge of $5 for every hour of court time.

a) Which plan would you select if you are instructed to purchase 25 hours of court time at the lowest possible cost?
b) Which plan would you select if you are instructed to purchase 50 hours of court time at the lowest possible cost?
