Modeling with Linear Functions · Exercise 52

A phone company has a monthly cellular data plan where a customer pays a flat monthly fee of $10 and then a certain amount of money per megabyte (MB) of data used on the phone. If a customer uses 20 MB, the monthly cost will be $11.20. If the customer uses 130 MB, the monthly cost will be $17.80.

ⓐFind a linear equation for the monthly cost of the data plan as a function of the number of MB used.
ⓑInterpret the slope and y-intercept of the equation.
ⓒUse your equation to find the total monthly cost if 250 MB are used.
