<span><span>DO use multiplication sign '*' (the STAR) symbol. For the simplifier, xy is NOT the same as x*y or yx. Simplifier thinks that xy is a separate variable. Good example: x*y-y*(x+2). Bad example: xy-y(x+2).</span>DO use '*' when multiplying a variable by an expression in parentheses: x*(x+2). Otherwise, my simplifier will think that you are trying to use a function and will become confused.Use parentheses liberally to avoid any ambiguity. (x+y)/(x-y) is NOT the same as x+y/x-y. x+y/x-y means x+(y/x)-y.</span>Operations<span>Use '*' (STAR) for multiplication. 2*3 is legal, 2x3 will be misunderstood.Use '^' (CARET) for power. 2^3 means 2 to degree of 3, or 8.Use '/' (FORWARD SLASH) for divisionOnly '(' and ')' (parentheses) are allowed for grouping terms. Curly or square brackets are used for other purposes.</span>
Operation priority: + and - have lowest priority, * and / h
Good Examplesx*y-x*(y+2) <-- '*' is used for multiplications
a^b*3 <-- means (a to the degree of b) multiplied by 3
Bad examples<span>xy-yx <-- variable xy and variable yx are different variables
y(x-2) <-- simplifier will think that it is function y of x-2.</span>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Ben has a cell phone plan that provides 200 free minutes each month for a flat rate of $39.
We are also told that For any minutes over 200, Ben is charged $0.35 per minute.
let x be the minutes used each month
So, if 
So, coat will be $39
If 
So, Ben is charged $0.35 per minute
So, when
So, charge = 
So, the piecewise functions accurately represents charges based on Ben's cell phone :
