Help! Tim's phone service charges $24.72 plus an additional $0.18 for each text message sent per month. If Tim's phone bill was $29.22, which equation could be used to find how many text messages, x, Tim sent last month? A. $0.18x - $24.72 = $29.22 B. $0.18x + $24.72 = $29.22 C. $24.72x + $0.18 = $29.22 D. $24.72x - $0.18 = $29.22 PLZ HELP!!!
