Package A is less expensive for Zach to send 250 multimedia texts each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Zach plans to send 250 multimedia texts each month.

Package A charges $0.25 per multimedia  text with no monthly fees.

Package B charges $0.20 per multimedia text, but has a  $15 monthly fee.

We need to find out which package is less expensive for Zach to add the plan.

The cost of 250 multimedia texts by package A :

⇒ Number of texts × cost per text

⇒ 250 × 0.25

⇒ 62.5

∴ The package A charges $62.5 for 250 multimedia texts.

The cost of 250 multimedia texts by package B :

⇒ (Number of texts × cost per text) + monthly fee

⇒ (250 × 0.20) + 15

⇒ 50 + 15

⇒ 65

∴ The package B charges $65 for 250 multimedia texts.

The Package A charges $62.5 which is less than package B charge of $65.

Hence, package A is less expensive.
