A cell phone plan has a basic charge $35 per a month.

\

This plan has a condition that, one must have to use less than or equal to 400 minutes in a month.

\

Let, \"\" be the number of minute used in a month and \"\" be the total monthly charges.

\

The usage charges for  400 minutes or less than 400, then the function is \"\".

\

Find the cost function if user the uses more than 400 minutes:

\

Consider above 400 minutes are the additional minutes.

\

For every additional minute, it charges a 10 cents per minutes.

\

The number of minutes in a month = 400 minutes + additional minutes.

\

Then the additional minute are \"\".

\

The charges of the additional minutes are \"\".

\

The total monthly charges = basic charges + additional charges.

\

\"\"

\

The function is \"\".

\

So the cost function is \"\".
