<em>Question:</em>

<em>Sal is trying to determine which cell phone and service plan to buy for his mother. The first phone costs $100 and $55 per month for unlimited usage. The second phone costs $150 and $51 per month for unlimited usage. </em>

<em>The inequality that will determine the number of months, x, that are required for the second phone to be less expensive is . </em>

<em>The solution to the inequality is . </em>

<em>Sal’s mother would have to keep the second cell phone plan for at least months in order for it to be less expensive.</em>

Answer:

a. 150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

b. x > 12.5

c. At least 13 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

First Phone;

Cost = \$100

Additional = \$55 <em>(monthly)</em>

Second Phone;

Cost = \$150

<em />Additional = \$51<em> (monthly)</em>

<em></em>

Solving (a): The inequality

<em></em>

Represent the number of months with x

The first phone is expressed as:

100 + 55x

The second phone is expressed as:

150 + 51x

For the second to be less expensive that the first, the inequality is:

150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

Solving (b): Inequality Solution

150 + 51x < 100 + 55x

Collect Like Terms

51x-55x

-4x

Solve for x

x > -50/-4

x > 12.5

Solving (c): Interpret the solution in (b)

x > 12.5 implies 13, 14, 15....

Hence, She'll keep the second phone for a period of at least 13 months
