Question

Your cell phone plan costs ​$24..99 per month plus ​$0.17 for each text message you send or receive. You have at most ​$32.00 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

24.99 + 0.17m < = 32
0.17m < = 32 - 24.99
0.17m < = 7.01
m < = 7.10/0.17
m < = 41.24......so the maximum number that u can send or receive is 41

Answer 2

41 texts that is either 21 inbox and 20 outbox, or it could be 20 inbox and 21 outbox
