A cable TV company charges a flat fee of $25 for basic cable service, plus
extra for each movie a customer watches. Here is some of the pricing
information:
Movies watched 0 1 2 3
Cable TV bill ($) 25 29 33 37
According to this information, how many movies can a customer watch and
still keep his or her bill under $60?

Answer :

keziakh004

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Each movie costs $4 since the bill increased by $4 when the customer watched a movie.

$29 - $25 = $4

Create an equality using this information.  Solve for x.

25 + 4x > 60

(25 + 4x) - 25 > (60) - 25

4x > 35

(4x)/4 > (35)/4

x > 8.75

Since the bill must stay under $60, round the answer down.  The customer can watch 8 movies with the given price range.
