Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:Jo's Mobile Plan:

Fixed monthly charge = £16

Monthly 150 free minutes, post that 13p (or £0.13) per minute,

Monthly 150 free texts, post that 15p (or £0.15) per text

Jo's mobile phone usage details:

170 minutes of calls

182 texts

Total Charges for Jo = Fixed Monthly Charge + Charges for Calls + Charges for Texts

⇒ Total Charges for Jo = 16 + (170-150) × 0.13 + (182-150) × 0.15

⇒ Total Charges for Jo = 16 + (20) × 0.13 + (32) × 0.15

⇒ Total Charges for Jo = 16 + 2.6 + 4.8

⇒ Total Charges for Jo = 23.4

Hence, Jo should be charged £23.4 for the month.
