Your cell phone plan costs ​$24.99 per month plus ​$0.19 for each text message you send or receive. You have at most ​$29 to spend on your cell phone bill. What is the maximum number of text messages that you can send or receive next​ month?

Answer 1

Answer: You can send or receive a maximum of 21 text messages per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to take out the number the phone bill costs (24.99)

29 - 24.99 = 4.01

Then, you need to find out how many 0.19 fit into 4.01.

21 * 0.19 = 3.99. Any more than that and it would go over.
