Write an equation that represents the following problem. There are two cell phone plans available from Cell Phones R Us company.

Plan A charges $35 a month plus $0.05 for every text message. Plan B charges $50 a month plus $0.01 for every text message. How many text messages do you need to send in order for Plan A to cost the same as Plan B?
35 + 5m = 50 + m

50 + 0.05m = 35 + 0.01m

35 + 0.05m = 50 + 0.01m

35 + m = 50 + 5m

Can you simplify 3/18. EXPLAIN?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Yes, it simplifies to 1/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both the top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) can be both divided by 3. 3 divided by 3 is 1. 18 divided by 3 is 6.

What affect does "h" have on the parent function y = 1/x ?

pochemuha

If h moves the graph left or right, $y= \frac{1}{x+h}$ (moves left)
$y= \frac{1}{x-h}$ (moves right)

If a vertical stretch by a factor of |h|, then $y = \frac{h}{x}$

If h moves the graph up or down, $y= \frac{1}{x} +h$ (moves up)
$y= \frac{1}{x} -h$ (moves down)

$y= \frac{1}{-hx}$ and h = 1

Which one doesn’t belong with the other three? Explain your reasoning plz plz answer #3

Ahat [919]

The box provides some examples of how<em> exponents can be used to shorten repeated multiplication</em>. The first, third, and fourth boxes all show how the repeated multiplication of 2, 3, and 5 can all be abbreviated as $2^4, 3^2$ and $5^3$ . The only expression which doesn't belong is $3+3+3+3=3(4)$ , because it's showing how repeated <em>addition</em> can be shortened to <em>multiplication</em>.

He relationship between x and y can be modeled by an inverse variation function eq

Harrizon [31]

Eq= y=k/x( if y is inversely prop to x)
Where k is the constant
Such as if x = 1and k = 3
Then y = 3/1
Y= 3

Find the center that eliminates the linear terms in the translation of 4x^2 - y^2 + 24x + 4y + 28 = 0.(-3, 2)(-3,- 2)(4, 0)

baherus [9]

Step 1

Given;

$4x^2-y^2+24x+4y+28=0$

Required; To find the center that eliminates the linear terms

Step 2

$\begin{gathered} 4x^2-y^2+24x+4y=-28 \\ 4x^2+24x-y^2+4y=-28 \\ Complete\text{ the square }; \\ 4x^2+24x \\ \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=4 \\ b=24 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\frac{24}{2\times4} \\ d=\frac{24}{8} \\ d=3 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{24^2}{4\times4} \\ e=0-\frac{576}{16}=-36 \end{gathered}$

Step 3

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

$\begin{gathered} a(x+d)^2+e \\ 4(x+_{}3)^2-36 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-36-y^2+4y=-28 \\ 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 4

Completing the square for -y²+4y

$\begin{gathered} \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=-1 \\ b=4 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\text{ }\frac{4}{2\times-1} \\ d=\frac{4}{-2} \\ d=-2 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{4^2}{4\times(-1)} \\ \\ e=0-\frac{16}{-4} \\ e=4 \end{gathered}$

Step 5

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

$\begin{gathered} a(y+d)^2+e \\ =-1(y+(-2))^2+4 \\ =-(y-2)^2+4 \end{gathered}$

Step 6

$\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2+4=-28+36 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=-28+36-4 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=4 \\ \frac{4(x+3)^2}{4}-\frac{(y-2)^2}{4}=\frac{4}{4} \\ (x+3)^2-\frac{(y-2)^2}{2^2}=1 \end{gathered}$

Step 7

$\begin{gathered} \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1 \\ \text{This is the }form\text{ of a hyperbola.} \\ \text{From here } \\ a=1 \\ b=2 \\ k=2 \\ h=-3 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is (-3,2)
