b. If you send or receive an average of 200 text messages each month, the plan with unlimited text messaging for $50 per month would be the better option. This is because the cost for the plan with unlimited text messaging remains the same regardless of the number of text messages sent or received, whereas the cost for the other plan would increase with each additional text message. Therefore, the plan with unlimited text messaging would be more cost-effective and convenient in this scenario.
