Question

brandes cell phone bill averages $60.95 per month, based on a fixed fee of $ 24.95 and $0.12 per minute of usage . what is the number of minute Brande averages per month?

Answer 1

suppose Brande uses x minutes.
can u form the linear equation now?

Answer 2

$0.12 per minute of usage... then how much for x minutes usage?

Answer 3

If she doesn't use her phone at all, it costs $24.95.
After that... she pays $0.12 for every minute.
So one minute in a month would cost 24.95+.12=25.07.
Can you model more minutes?
