Challenge A cell phone plan costs $30. 90 per month for 500 minutes of talk time. It costs an
additional $0. 09 per minute for each minute over 500 minutes. To get e-mail access, it costs 30% of
the price for 500 minutes of talk time. Your bill, which includes e-mail, is the same each month for 8
months. The total cost for all 8 months is $382. 56. Write and solve an equation to find the number of
minutes of talk time you use each month.
Let m represent the number of minutes over 500 minutes each month. Which equation represents the
given situation?
OA. 382. 56 = 8(0. 09m + 30. 90)
