Question

plan a cost 45$ per month for 700 minutes plan b cost 70$ a month for 1500 minutes both plans charge 15 cents for each additional minute used. if he uses 1200 minutes per month. how much will he save by choosing plan b

Answer 1

Since the usage is less than the amount provided by plan B, we have only to look at plan A.

 

1200 minutes - 700 minutes = 500 minutes x $0.15/minute = $75.00 plus the monthly fee of $45.00, for a total of $120.00

 

That figure less the cost of plan B = $120.00 - 70.00 = $50.00

 

So, plan B will be less costly by $50.00
