Answer:

x > 1.7 minutes

The monthly telephone usage amounts so that plan A is not greater than plan B are all greater than 1.7 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two plans must be defined by the equation of the line y = mx + b, where

y = plan

m = slope or payment of additional cents per minute

x = time expressed in minutes

For Plan A, we have

y = 4x + 40.10 (Equation A)

While plan B is defined as

y = 7x + 35 (Equation B)

Plan A must be less than Plan B,

4x + 40.10 < 7x + 35

We put the “x” on the left side and the independent terms on the right side,

4x - 7x < 35 - 40.10

We add algebraically,

-3x < -5.10

We multiply the equation by -1 to eliminate the two “minus” signs, changing the inequality sign,

3x > 5.10

We isolate x,

x > 5.10 / 3

We solve, calculating the value of x,

x > 1.7 minutes

The monthly telephone usage amounts so that plan A is not greater than plan B are all greater than 1.7 minutes.

There are six households in a rural community. Each household earns $40,000 per year. Suppose that a new resident builds a mansi
dusya [7]

Answer:

Median income has not changed

Mean income has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number of houses = 6

Earning per household = $40,000

The initial mean :

$(40,000 * 6) / 6 = $40000

Initial median :

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000

= 1/2(n+1)th term,

Median = 40000

A 7th household earns 4,000,000

Mean = ((40000*6) + 4,000,000) / 7 = $605,714

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 4000000

Median = 4th term = 40000
