Answer: 286 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
x : # of months that has gone by
0.24x : cost of the 24 cent plan after "x" minutes
39.95 + 0.10x : cost of the 10 cent plan after "x" minutes
1. 39.95 + 0.10x > 0.24x
2. 39.95 > 0.24x - 0.10x
3. 39.95 > 0.14x
4. 285.36 > x
x must be AT LEAST 286 minutes for plan #2 (39.95 + 0.10x) to be a better deal
Answer:
y=3/8x-4
Move the expression to the left
y-3/8x=-4
Multiply both sides by 8
8y-3x=-32
Reorder the terms
-3x+8y=-32
Change the signs and standard form is...
3x-8y=32
