A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $11 plus an additional $0.12 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $17 plus an additional $0.10 for each minute of calls.

What is your question?

11 + .12m = 17 + .10m(?)

To determine which plan is cheaper for you, we need to compare the total cost of each plan based on your estimated minutes of calls per month.

Let's assume you make x minutes of calls in a month.

For Plan A:
The cost of the plan is $11.
For each minute of calls, you are charged an additional $0.12.
So, the total cost of Plan A can be calculated as:
Total cost of Plan A = $11 + ($0.12 * x)

For Plan B:
The cost of the plan is $17.
For each minute of calls, you are charged an additional $0.10.
So, the total cost of Plan B can be calculated as:
Total cost of Plan B = $17 + ($0.10 * x)

Now, you can compare the two total cost equations to find out which plan is cheaper for your estimated minutes of calls.
