Answer: the number of minutes of long distance call that one can make is lesser than or equal to 12 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of minutes of long distance call that one makes.
The first three minutes of a call cost $2.10. After that, each additional minute or portion of a minute of that call cost $0.45. This means that if x minutes of long distance call is made, the total cost would be
2.10 + 0.45(x - 3)
Therefore, the inequality to find the number of minutes one can call long distance for $6.15 is expressed as
2.10 + 0.45(x - 3) ≤ 6.15
2.10 + 0.45x - 1.35 ≤ 6.15
0.75 + 0.45x ≤ 6.15
0.45x ≤ 6.15 - 0.75
0.45x ≤ 5.4
x ≤ 5.4/0.45
x ≤ 12
They are on opposite sides of zero because one number is negative and one is positive
