Answer:

$0.15x+100$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of texts.

We have been given that Jason's cell phone bill is $100 per month plus $0.15 for every text message that he sends or receives.

Since cost of sending or receiving each text is $0.15, so cost of receiving and sending x texts would be $0.15x$ .

The total cost of bill would be fixed charge $100 plus cost of receiving and sending x texts. Therefore, Jason's cell phone bill would be $0.15x+100$ .
