Alexa pays 7/20 of a dollar for each minute she uses her pay-as-you-go phone for a call, and 2/5 of a dollar for each minute of
9966 [12]

Answer:

  • The system of equations is x + y = 85 and 7/20x+2/5y=31
  • To eliminate the x-variable from the equations, you can multiply the equation with the fractions by 20 and multiply the other equation by -7.
  • B-She used 60 minutes for calling and 25 minutes for data.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always a good idea to start by defining variables in such a problem. Here, we can let x represent the number of calling minutes, and y represent the number of data minutes. The the total number of minutes used is ...

  x + y = 85

The total of charges is the sum of the products of charge per minute and minutes used:

  7/20x + 2/5y = 31.00

We can eliminate the x-variable in these equations by multiplying the first by -7 and the second by 20, then adding the result.

  -7(x +y) +20(7/20x +2/5y) = -7(85) +20(31)

  -7x -7y +7x +8y = -595 +620 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = 25 . . . . . . . . simplify

Then the value of x is

  x = 85 -y = 85 -25

  x = 60

-4(x - 2) - 3x = 2(5x - 7) + 6
Allisa [31]

Answer: last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To apply the Distributive property, remember that:

c(a-b)=ca-cb

Then, applying this, you get:

-4(x - 2) - 3x = 2(5x - 7) + 6\\\\(-4)(x)+(-4)(-2)-3x=(2)(5x)+(2)(-7)+6\\\\-4x+8-3x=10x-14+6

Combine like terms means that you need to add the like terms.

Therefore, you get:

-7x+8=10x-8

You can observe that the expression obtained matches with the expression provided in the last option.
