Under her cell phone plan, Micaela pays a flat cost of $47 per month and $5 per gigabyte. She wants to keep her bill at $68.50 per month. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine xx, the number of gigabytes of data Micaela can use while staying within her budget.

Respuesta :

Answer:

≤ 4.3 gigabytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Flat fee + cost for x gigabytes = her budget

47 + 5 * x ≤ 68.50

5x = 68.50 - 47 ≤ 21.50

x ≤ 21.50/5 = 4.3 gigabytes
