A cell phone company charges $55 per month for unlimited minutes plus $0.25 text sent. if the charges to aly's cell phone bill can be no more than $100, then how many texts can aly send?

Based on this information, you can set up the inequality 0.25x +55 ≤ 100 ; where x is the amount of texts.
To answer your question, find the value of x.

0.25x ≤ 45
x
≤ 180

Therefore, Aly can send at most 180 texts.
