Joanna pays a flat rate of $74 for her cell phone and is charged $0.08 for every text she sends. her goal is to spend no more than $96 on her phone bill each month. which inequality will help her determine the minimum number of texts she sends per month?

Respuesta :

To help us find for the equation, let us define the variables. The formula for total cost is given as:

cost = FC + VC * x

where FC is fixed cost = 74, VS is variable cost = 0.08, while x is the number of text she sends

Therefore:

cost = 74 + 0.08 x

Since cost cannot be greater than 96, hence:

74 + 0.08 x ≤ 96
