Under his cell phone plan, Parker pays a flat cost of $36.50 per month and $5 per gigabyte. He wants to keep his bill under $45 per month. Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine gg, the number of gigabytes Parker can use while staying within his budget.

Sagot :

Answer:  Parker can use 1.7 gigabytes to stay within his budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Parker pays a  flat cost of $36.50 and has to pay $5 a month then we can represent it by the  36.50 + 5gg  where gg is the number of gigabytes.

If  he has to keep his bill under $45 , then 36.50 + 5gg has to be less than 45.

36.50 + 5gg < 45.   Now solve for gg

-36.50             36.50

   5gg < 8.5

  gg< 1.7
