Part A: 
 First we define the variable to be used for the problem:
 x: the number of pages that Sandra should fax
 The inequality for rent is:
 0.06x <= 80
 Note that the price will be less than using the fax from the office, since for the same number of pages, we have:
 y = 0.10x
 Answer:
 
an inequality that can be used to calculate the number of pages that Sandra should fax in a year is:
 
0.06x <= 80

 Part B:
 0.06x <= 80
 From here we clear x:
 x <= 80 / 0.06
 x <= 1333.33333
 Nearest whole number
 x <= 1333
 Sandra can use the leased fax for 1333 pages and the cost will be:
 1333 * 0.06 = 79.98 $
 Using the office fax the cost will be:
 1333 * 0.1 = 133.3 $
  Answer:
 
By renting the sara machine, you save:
 
133.3-79.98 = 53.32 $

What is slope when talking about math
dolphi86 [110]
When graphing, its how much you rise and run
thats the formula when u have a graph and the question is asking for the slope.
you chose a point, and go down or up however many times it goes to the next point, and you run to the left however many times it gets you to get to that point.
if the line goes downward the slope is therefore negative, and if the line goes upward, the slope is therefore, positive.
m in math is meant to be slope, so m= \frac{rise}{run}
