Under her cell phone plan, Fatoumata pays a flat cost of $59 per month and $3 per
gigabyte. She wants to keep her bill under $75 per month. Which inequality can be
used to determine x, the maximum number of gigabytes Fatoumata can use while
staying within her budget?

If we consider [tex]x[/tex] to be the number of gigabytes she uses in a month, then her bill every month can be represented by the following expression:

[tex]59 + 3x[/tex] .

We are told that the bill has to be kept under $75. Therefore:

[tex]59 + 3x < 75[/tex]

This inequality can be used to solve for [tex]x[/tex], and so we can use it to find the maximum number of gigabytes she can use while keeping the bill under $75.
