Paul currently has $300 to spend on a data plan. He found a phone for $100 and a $50 a month charge.

Which inequality represents how many months Paul can afford this phone based on how much money he has right now?


Question 5 options:


x > 100



x + 50 < 300



50x + 100 < 300



50x + 300 < 100

Let x= months
So 50x is the total amount he pays after x months. You went to add 100 to this because there's a fixed cost of 100 for the phone
So you have the expression 100+50x which is the amount he pays after x months
Since he has a limit of 300,
100+50x < 300
