The cost for a long-distance telephone call is $0.36 for the first minute and $0.21 for each additional minute or portion thereof. Write an inequality representing the number of minutes a person could talk without exceeding $3.
-----------
Let "x" be number of minutes.
Cost = 0.36 + 0.21(x-1) <= 3
0.36 + 0.21(x-1) <= 3
