Write a linear equation for the total cost if Verizon charges 5 cents per
text and 12 cents per minute.
!

C=5t+12m

Step-by-step explanation:

If each text costs 5 cents (5t) and each minute costs 12 cents (12m), put these two values together equal to C, which is the total cost.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
