Question

for her cellular service, vera pays $32 a month, plus $0.75 for each minute over the allowed minutes in her plan. vera recieved a bill for $47 last month. write and solve an equation to find how many minutes vera used her phone beyond the allowed minutes.

Answer 1

20 minutes

Explanation:

$47-$32=$15

$15 / $.75 = 20 minutes

Answer 2

32 + .75x = 47 would be the equation. 47 - 32 = 15, .75x = 15. 15/.75 = 20. x = 20. She went 20 minutes over the limit. Hope this helps!
