Jade is trying to choose a cell phone plan. TalksAlot Company's has a monthly fee of $25 plus $0.50 a minute. ChatAway company's plan charges a $30 dollar fee plus $0.25 per minute.
Write equations to model this situation.

Hi Zweto,
This is a lot like the system of equations problem from yesterday.
First, make the number of minutes x, and the total costs y.

So for example,
If I write TalksAlot's plan with x, then it would be:
y = 0.5x + 25.

See if you can finish with ChatAway's plan:)
