Every month, your cell phone plan costs $90 and gives you unlimited talk, unlimited text messages, and 4 GB of data. The cell phone company also charges $20 for each gigabyte over 4 GB of data. How much will you be charged if you use 10 GB of data?

Answer: You will be charged $ 210 for 10 GB of data.

Explanation:

Given : Cost of cell phone plan = $90

Additional charge over 4GB for each GB = $20

If 10 GB data is used , then after 4 GB you need to pay for 6 additional GB (10-4=6)

Total charge = (Cost of cell phone plan)+ (Additional charge) x (Number of gigabytes over 4 GB)

i.e. Total charge = $(90+20(6))

= $ (90+120)

= $ 210

Hence, you will be charged $ 210 for 10 GB of data.
