Shontell spends $7 a month plus $0.10 per minute. Determine whether the cost per month is proportional to the to the number of m
inutes by graphing on the coordinate plane
2 answers:
Answer:
Not proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
Shontell spends $7 a month plus $0.10 per minute.
Let Shontell uses x number of minutes and total $y
Fixed amount = $7
Variable amount = $0.10 per minutes
In 1 minutes spends = 0.10
In x minutes = 0.10x
Total spends in a month, y = 7 + 0.10x
This is linear function not proportional equation.
Proportional equation, y=kx equation must passes through origin.
So, This is not situation of proportional equation. This is linear equation.
Now graph on coordinate plane
- x-axis represents number of minutes uses in a month.
- y-axis represents total cost spends in a month

Population are often modelled by exponential functions
The population will reach 1000000 people after 26.5 years
The population function is given as:
When the population reaches 1000000 people, we have:
P(x) = 1000000
So, the equation becomes
Divide both sides by 692600
Take logarithm of both sides
Apply logarithm to both sides
Make x the subject
Solve the logarithms of 1.444 and 1.014
Divide
The value of x, is the number of years the population reaches 1000000 people.
Hence, the population will reach 1000000 people after 26.5 years
