3x - 6y = 20
-6y = -3x + 20
y = 1/2x - 20/6.....slope = 1/2...y int = -20/6 = -10/3

2x - 4y = 3
-4y = -2x + 3
y = 1/2x - 3/4..slope = 1/2...y int = -3/4

same slope, different y int = parallel lines = no solution = inconsistent

Telephone plan consist of a monthly fee of $20 plus $.20 per minute for long distance calls made write an equation for the total

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$C=20+0.20N$

Step-by-step explanation:

Fixed monthly fee = $20

Amount charged per minute for long distance calls = $0.20

$C$ denotes total cost such that $N$ minutes are used for long distance calls.

Amount charged for $N$ minutes for long distance calls $=0.20N$

Therefore, an equation for the total cost, C, when N minutes are used for long distance calls is $C=20+0.20N$
