    Answer: $122.19

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this, first we have to calculate the additional KB that Astrid used:

    KB used - KB limit=

    6,978-5,000 = 1,978

    Then, the cost of the plan is equal to a fixed fee (49) plus the product of the number of additional KB over 5,000 (x) and the cost per KB (0.037).

    Cost = 49 + 0.037 x

    Substituting x = 1,978

    C = 49 + 0.037 (1,978)

    C = 49+73.186

    C=$122.19

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
