25 points! answer needed asap! you will be named brainiest!

you are trying to decide which of the two smartphones plans would be better. plan a charges a basic fee of $30 per month and 10 cents per text message. plan b charges a basic fee of $50 per month and 5 cents per text message.

how many text message would you need to send per month for plan b to be the better option? explain your decision.

i also need to see work. equations, everything that you would need to solve.

We need to send more than 400 messages for Plan B to be the better option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plan A

The cost is a flat fee of 30 plus 10 cents per message

Cost= 30 +.10m

Plan B

The cost is a flat fee of 50 plus 5 cents per message

Cost = 50 +.05m

We want cost of B to be less than cost A

30 +.10m > 50 +.05m

Subtract .05m from each side

30 +.10m- .05m > 50 +.05m-.05m

30 +.05m > 50

Subtract 30 from each side

30-30 +.05m > 50-30

.05m > 20

Divide each side by .05

.05/.05m > 20/.05

m > 400

We need to send more than 400 messages for Plan B to be the better option.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
