x represents the number of minutes

y represents the total cost per month of the calling plan

Plan A

Costs $15/month plus $0.08 per minute

You can express the monthly cost as


y=15+0.08x

Plan B

Costs $35 with unlimited calling → this means that no matter if you call one time or hours, you will pay only $35 per month

You can express the monthly cost as


y=35

The correct option is C.
