Sparky has a monthly cell phone plan that has a fixed charge of $15 per month plus $0.05 per text message. Sparky wants to spend no more than $50 per month on his cell phone. Write an inequality that represents the number of test messages, x, that Sparky can use in a month. PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer:

15 + 0.05x ≤ 50

Explanation:

The cost needs to be less than or equal to 50. Thus, the equation would be

15 + 0.05x ≤ 50
