Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a basic cellular phone plan costs $30 per month for 50 calling minutes

i.e. C(x) = [tex]30+0.50(x-50)[/tex], where x = calling minutes

Here 30 is fixed upto 50 calls after that cost increases at 0.50 per minute talk time.

[tex]C(x) = 30+0.5x-25 = 0.5x+5\\[/tex]

When monthly cost is atleast 35 and atmost 40 we have

[tex]35\leq C(x)\leq 40\\35\leq 0.5x+5\leq 40\\30\leq 0.5x\leq 35\\60\leq x\leq 70[/tex]

i.e. talking time must be atleast 60 minutes and atmost 70 minutes
