Sarah has a cell phone plan that charges $0.12 per minute plus a monthly fee of $21.00. She budgets $65.50 per month for total cell phone expenses without taxes. What is the maximum number of minutes Sarah could use her phone each month in order to stay within her budget?

Answer 1

44.5 minutes on her phone to stay within budget
