Answer:
1. C = $100 = .25(m)
2. C = $150
3. 800 = m
Step-by-step explanation:
1. C = $100 (flat fee rate) + .25m
2. c = $100 + .25(200 miles)
↓
c = $100 + 50
↓
c = 150
3. 300 = 100 + .25(m)
-100 -100 (subtract on both sides)
--------------------------------
200 = .25(m)
------------------- (divide by .25 to get m by itself)
.25
Therefore being 800 = m
<h3>
Answer: n+15</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
- n = number of minutes
- cost of company X = 3n+30
- cost of company Y = 2n+15
To find out how much more company X charges, we subtract the two cost expressions
CompanyX - CompanyY = (3n+30)-(2n+15) = 3n+30-2n-15 = n+15 which is the final answer.
--------------
An example:
Let's say you talk on the phone for n = 20 minutes.
Company X would charge you 3n+30 = 3*20+30 = 90 cents
Company Y would charge you 2n+15 = 2*20+15 = 55 cents
The difference of which is 90-55 = 35 cents.
If you plugged n = 20 into the n+15 expression we got, then n+15 = 20+15 = 35 matches up with the previous 35 cents.
This example helps confirm the answer. I'll let you try out other examples.
Answer:
When you divide fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal, So, you would have 9/5 * 15/14 you can cancel, and get 9/1 * 3/14, and end up with 27/14,
