Plan A has a cost of $.43 a minute for daytime calls and $.18 a minute for evening calls. Plan B has a charge of $.53 a minute for daytime calls and $.15 a minute for evening calls. Plan C has a flat rate of $80 with 250 minutes of calls allowed per month and a charge of $.40 per minute beyond that, day or evening Determine the total charge under each plan for this case: 140 minutes of day calls and 60 minutes of evening calls in a month. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "$" sign in your response.) a. Cost for Plan A Cost for Plan B Cost for Plan C $ 91.00 $103.20 $100.00 If the agent will use the service for daytime calls, over what range of call minutes will each plan be optimal?
