Before attempting to solve any problem, make sure that the units are consistent. There are units of feet and inches. To be consistent,let's convert ft to in knowing that there are 12 inches in 1 ft.

9 ft*12 in/1 ft = 108 inches

Now, it also mentions that there are 5 of these. So, the total length would be:
Total Length = 108*5 = 540 inches

Finally, divide the total length to 15 inches.

Number of portions = 540/15 = <em>36 pieces of 15-inch ribbons</em>

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

(1) The total cost under Plan A is <u>$92</u> and the total cost under Plan B is <u>$515</u>.

(2) The total cost under Plan A is <u>$92</u> and the total cost under Plan B is <u>$1,030</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is incomplete, so the complete question is below:</em></u>

A\ cell \ phone \ company\  offers\  two \ different \ plans.

Plan\ A\ costs\ \$92\ per\ month\ for\ unlimited\ talk\ and\ text.\ Plan\ B\ costs \ $0.20\ per\ minute\ plus\ \$0.10\ per\ text\ message\ sent.You\  need \  to\   purchase \  a \  plan \  for\   your \  14-year-old \  sister.Your\  sister\  currently \ uses\  1,750 \ minutes\  and \ sends\  1,650 \ texts\  each \ month.(1) What\  is\   your \  sister's\   total\   cost\   under \  each\   of\   the\   two\   plans?

(2) Suppose\  your\  sister\  doubles\  her\  monthly\  usage \ to\  3,500\  minutes \ and\  sends\  3,300 \ texts.What \ is \  your  \ sister's \  total \  cost \  under \  each \  of  \ the \  two \  plans?

Now, to find (1) total cost for each of the two plans. (2) Total cost under each of the two plans, if sister doubles her monthly usage to 3,500 minutes and sends 3,300 texts.

<h3>(1) </h3>

As, the Plan A is for unlimited talk and text

Cost of the Plan A = $92.

<u><em>Now, to find the cost under Plan B:</em></u>

According to question:

Rate of call per minute is $0.20 and per text is $0.10.

Calls she uses currently is 1,750 minutes and text 1,650.

<u><em>So, to get the cost of Plan B:</em></u>

0.20\times 1750+0.10\times 1650

=350+165

=515.

Thus, Plan B costs $515.

<h3>(2)</h3>

<u><em>Now, to get the total cost as, sister doubles her monthly usage to 3,500 minutes and sends 3,300 texts.</em></u>

As, the Plan A is same in both cases and is for unlimited text and calls.

So, cost of Plan A = $92.

As, the monthly usage is double.

Calls in minutes are 3,500.

Texts are 3,300.

<u><em>Now, to get the total cost under Plan B:</em></u>

0.20\times 3500+0.10\times 3300

=700+330

=1030.

Hence, the cost of Plan B = $1,030.

Therefore, (1) The total cost under Plan A is $92 and the total cost under Plan B is $515.

(2) The total cost under Plan A is $92 and the total cost under Plan B is $1,030.
