Acell phone provider offers a plan that costs $40 per month plus $0.20 per text message sent or received. a comparable plan costs $60 per month but offers unlimited text messaging. complete parts a. and b. below. b. if you send or receive an average of 200 text messages each month, which plan would you choose? why?

x = number of text messages sent

0.2x+40=50

0.2x = 10

5(0.2x) = 5(10)

x = 50

Therefore, 50 text messages would have to be sent or received in order for the plans to cost the same each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.
