You can put this solution on YOUR website!
C=40+0.05*t, where t= number of text messages
This is a function. There is no place where one gets 2 C values for the same t value.
The domain are all non-negative text messages. Zero is fine, but negative numbers are not allowed.[0,oo)
The range is all costs from $40 higher. [40,oo)
