Answer:

75>59.90+0.25x

Explanation:

if you want the answer it's 59=the number of texts you can send

59.90 because its the amount you already have to pay

0.25x because you'll have to pay 0.25 for every text you send.

The less than sign because it has to be less than 75

$59.90+ $0.25x
This is because $59.90 is the amount you already have to pay so you would do $0.25x to get the number of texts you could send.
