Answer:

156 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to create an equation to represent how Frank's phone company bills him

I will denote "y" as the total for his bill
I will denote "x" as the number of minutes Frank uses

So the phone company charges an $8 monthly fee, so this value remains constant and will be our "y-intercept"

They then charge $0.06 for every minute he talks, this will be our "slope"

Combining everything into an equation, we have: y = 0.06x + 8

Now since we were given Franks phone bill total and want to figure out how many minutes he used, we just need to solve the equation for x and plug in our known y value

y = 0.06x + 8 → y - 8 = 0.06x → $x=\frac{y-8}{0.06}$
Then plugging in our y value we get $x=\frac{17.36-8}{0.06}=\frac{9.36}{0.06}= 156$

Frank used up a total of 156 minutes

What is the distance between the points 4,10 and -3,-14 on the coordinate plane

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are supposed to find the distance between two coordinates ( 4,10) and (-3,-14).

Let us do this step by step with detailed explanation.

We will use distance formula in order to find the distance between them. The distance formula is given as

$D=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} }$

Here we have

$x_{2}=-3\\x_{1}=4\\y_{2}=-14\\y_{1}=10\\$

Replacing them in the formula we get

$D=\sqrt{(-3-4)^{2} +(-14-10)^{2} }\\D=\sqrt{(-7)^{2} +(-24)^{2} }\\D=\sqrt{49+ 576 }\\D=\sqrt{625 }\\D=25\\$

Hence our distance is 25 units

Solve x2 - 8x - 9 = 0. Rewrite the equation so that it is of the form x2 + bx = c.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

x=9,-1 and $x^2+(-8)x=9$

Explanation:

we have been given with the quadratic equation $x^2-8x-9$

we compare the given quadratic equation with general quadratic equation

general quadratic is $ax^2+bx+c=0$

from given quadratic equation a=1,b= -8,c= -9

substituting these values in the formula for discriminant $D=b^{2}-4ac$

$D=(-8)^2-4(1)(-9)=100$

Now, to find the value of x

Formula is $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{D}}{2a}$

Now, substituting the values we will get

$x=\frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{100}} {2}= \frac{8\pm10}{2}=9,-1$

And rewritting the given equation by shifting 9 to right hand side of the given equation and taking minus inside the bracket so as to convert it in the form of

$x^2+bx=c$
