Question

PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO ANSWER FOR LIKE AN HOUR WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! Write a linear inequality to model the situation below: Then solve for your unknown to determine how many cell phones the family can have:
a. A cell phone company charges $40 plus $15 per line each month. Jake must spend less than $115 on his family’s cell phone bill each month. How many cell phones can his family have?

Answer 1

Answer:

115<40+15x

i believe this is right. 115 is what he has and what he spends has to be less than that and x is how many lines so solve for x to find how many lines he can have

Answer 2

Answer:

Correct answer is: Family can have n ≤ 5 phones

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear inequality is:

40 + 15 n ≤ 115  => 15 n ≤ 115 - 40 => 15 n ≤ 75 => n ≤ 75/15 => n ≤ 5

God with you!!!
