Question

Max pays a flat rate of $85 for his cell phone. He is also charged $0.15 for every text that he sends. His cell phone bill can be no more than the amount he has budgeted for it each month. If x represents the number of texts and y represents his budgeted amount, which inequality represents Max’s cell phone budget each month?

$0.15x + $85 ≥ y

$0.15x + $85 ≤ y

$0.15x – $85 ≥ y

$0.15x – $85 ≤ y

Answer 1

$0.15x + $85 ≤ y
