A cell phone company charges a $15 activation fee, and then $30 per month. If Ian has the plan for 24 months, what is his total cost?

Evaluate the expression $15 + 24($30) to find the total cost.

Respuesta :

The total cost that Ian spent is $735.

Answer:

The total cost is $735.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a cell phone company charges a $15 activation fee, and then $30 per month.

Fixed changes = $15

Variable changed = $30 per month

Let x be the number of month. So the total cost is defined as

[tex]T(x)=15+30x[/tex]

We need to find the total cost for 24 months.

Substitute x=24 in the above equation.

[tex]T(24)=15+30(24)[/tex]

[tex]T(24)=15+720[/tex]

[tex]T(24)=735[/tex]

Therefore, the total cost is $735.
