Answer 1

The Total number of min call he use his phone is 234 minutes .

Explanation:

Given as :

The Total phone bill cost = $47.43

The fixed charge of cellular plan = $9.99

The per min phone charge = $0.16 per min

Let The number of minutes did he use his phone = n min

Now, According to question

The Total phone bill cost = The charge of cellular plan + The per min phone charge × The number of minutes did he use his phone

Or, $9.99 + $0.16 × n = $47.43

Or, $0.16 × n = $47.43 - $9.99

Or, 0.16 × n = 37.44

∴ n =
`(37.44)/(0.16)`

I.e n = 234 min

So, number of minutes of call = n = 234 min

Hence The Total number of min call he use his phone is 234 minutes . Answer
