3000 text messages can be sent without breaking the budget.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each month your cell phone company charges $ 50 for your plan plus 3 cents for each text you send, and you have $ 140 budgeted for cell phone expenses for the month, to make a determination about the number of texts you can send each month the following calculation must be performed:
(140 - 50) / 0.03 = X
90 / 0.03 = X
3000 = X
Therefore, 3000 text messages can be sent without breaking the budget.
