John's phone company offers 2 cell phone plans, A and B. Both plans offer 450 free minutes per month, but plan A charges $40 per month and $0.35 for each additional minute, while plan B charges $45 per month and $0.30 for each additional minute. Which inequality shows the number of minutes, x, that John may use in a month in order to make plan B the better plan for that month? A.
40 + 0.35(x − 450) 45 + 0.30(x − 450)

D.
40 + 0.35x > 45 + 0.30x

45 + 0.30(x-450) > 40 + 0.35(x-450)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Free minutes = 450

For plan A,

Fix charge = $40

Charge per minute after free minutes  = $0.35

For plan B,

Fix charge = $45

Charge per minute after free minutes  = $0.30

Let x be the additional minutes.

Charges according to plan A = 40 + 0.35(x-450)

Charges according to plan B = 45 + 0.30(x-450)

If plan B is better than plan A.

45 + 0.30(x-450) > 40 + 0.35(x-450)

Required inequality : 45 + 0.30(x-450) > 40 + 0.35(x-450)
