A graphics company charges $50 per hour to create a logo plus $250 for the ownership rights of the logo. A private contractor charges $75 per hour to develop a logo plus a $100 supply fee.Which equation can be solved to determine x, the number of hours after which the costs would be the same?

The graphics company’s cost is $50 per hour plus a one-time $250 ownership fee, so its total is 50x + 250. The contractor’s cost is $75 per hour plus a one-time $100 supply fee, so its total is 75x + 100. Setting these totals equal gives 50x + 250 = 75x + 100, which is choice A.
