Back in ye olden days, cell phone companies charged for texting. A cell phone company charges 10 cents per text message if a customer sends up to 100 messages per month, 8 cents for 101-200 messages, and 6 cents for 201-300 messages. If today is the last day of the month, and you've sent 200 texts, is it worth it to send 1 more text message?

It is worth it.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a customer sends 101 - 200 texts in a month, they get charged 8 cents per text.

If they send 201 - 300, they get charged 6 cents per month.

If you have sent 200 texts, your charge for the month will therefore be:

= 200 * 8

= $16.00

If you send the 201th text, you will be charged 6 cents per text. Total charge would be:

= 201 * 6

= $12.06

If you send 1 more text, it will be worth it because you will save:

= 16 - 12.06

= $3.94
