Under his cell phone plan, Ethan pays a flat cost of $59 per month and $5 per gigabyte. He wants to keep his bill under $70 per month. Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine x, the number of gigabytes Ethan can use while staying within his budget.

ANSWER:

Inequality: 5x+59<70

x<2.2

Explanation: 5x+59<70

                         -59  -59          -subtract 59 from both sides

                           5x<11

                        5x/15< 11/5    -divide both sides by 5

                             x< 2.2

59/350

so say that you have 59$ as a flat cost do when you have a problem like this its kinda easy but what you are going to do is take 59 and divide 5 and see what you get you are going to get 11.8 then divide 11.8 into 70 and see what you get then lets see you would get a number that is a fraction answer sis at top.  

Glad i could help you have a nice day!!!

b. is true. hope this . happy
