Using a linear function, it is found that Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the flat cost as the y-intercept and the cost per gigabyte as the slope, the cost of using g gigabytes is:

C(g) = 4g + 69.

She wants to keep her bill at $83.80 per month, hence:

C(g) = 83.80

4g + 69 = 83.80

4g = 14.80

g = 14.80/4

g = 3.7.

Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
 <span>P(t) = Po(1 - r)^t 

P(t) = price after t months --> S 
Po = initial price -- P 
r = rate as a decimal 

S = P(.9)^4

The diameter of a circle is 16 centimeters. How would you calculate the area?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: 201.06

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a circle with the radius, square the radius, or multiply it by itself. Then, multiply the squared radius by pi, or 3.14, to get the area. To find the area with the diameter, simply divide the diameter by 2, plug it into the radius formula, and solve as before.

Hope this helps!

It took Max 3.5 hours to cover a certain route walking at a rate of 2.4 mph. How long would it take Max to cover the same route
andrew11 [14]
It would take 2.8 hours ((3.5 hours x 2.4 Mph)/3Mph) hours for Max to cover the same route walking 3 mph. This problem can be solved by using the velocity equation which is the velocity is equal a change in position divided by a change of time. The amount of time can be found assuming that Max walks in a constant velocity from the starting point until the finish point of 8.4 miles distance (3.5 hours x 2.4 mph)<span>.</span>
