Answer:
399 minutes a month
Step-by-step explanation:
As I understand the question the answer would, in other words, be how many minutes you can long-distance call with the economy plan for under $30.
The unit ratio is 5 cents per minute, which equates to 20 minutes worth of call time for one dollar (100/5).
The economy plan is $20 cheaper than the deluxe plan. $20 spent on long-distance calling gets you 400 mintues, but the question asks for an integer that would still leave remaining money.
Therefore the answer is 399 minutes of long-distance calling, which would leave five unspent cents.
Regina has enough money to buy all the items she needs
3 cans of dog food = 1.50*3 = 4.50
1 gallon of milk = 4.00*1 = 400
5 pounds of chicken = 1.55*5 = 7.75
1 box of cereal = 2.75*1 = 2.75
6 rolls of paper towels = .99*6 = 5.94
If you add all those together it equals 24.94 leaving 6 cents in change
4.50 + 4.00 + 7.75 + 2.75 + 5.94 = 24.94$
