    114 text messages

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Set up an equation:

    45.50 =.25x + 17

    Where x is the number of text messages sent

    Subtract 17 on both sides:

    45.50 =.25x + 17

    -17 - 17

    28.50 =.25x

    Divide by. 25 on both sides:

    28.50 =.25x

    /.25 /.25

    114 = x
