If the plan is monthly, x is equal to minutes, and y is equal to total cost, then the following is true:

Answer:

C: y = 0.25x + 35

Explanation:

Every minute $0.25 is added, so if x is equal to minutes, then part of our equation will be 0.25x.

If the plan is monthly, then every month there will be a $35 dollar fee. This can be represented by + $35.

Lastly, y is the total cost so the equation will be set equal to y.
