Solution:

We have the following data:

- Nathan has a smartphone data plan that costs $25 per month that includes 5 GB of data.

- Will be charged an extra $20 per GB over the included amount.

Then if he used 5 GB over the limit then will be charged an extra of

5 GB x $20 = $100

thus Nathan has to pay in a month where he used 5 GB over the limit an amount of:

$25 + $100 = $125

On the other hand, if he used 2 GB over the limit then will be charged an extra of

2 GB x $20 = $40

thus Nathan has to pay in a month where he used 2 GB over the limit an amount of:

$25 + $40 = $65
