A cell phone company has a basic monthly plan of 40$ plus $0.45 for any minutes uses over 700. Before receiving this statement, John saw he was charged a total of $48.10. Write and solve an equation to determine how many minutes he must have used during the month. Write an equation without decimals.

Respuesta :

40+0.45x=y
x=the number of minutes extra uses
y= total
40+0.45x=48.10
0.45x=48.10-40
0.45x=8.10
0.45/0.45=8.10/0.45
x=18
