Equation to represent the given situation :
7(19.70 + 1.97 + m X 0.05) = 180.39,
<h3>What is Linear Equation?</h3>
A linear equation is an algebraic equation of the form y=mx+b. involving only a constant and a first-order (linear) term, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Given that:
Total cost for 7 month =$180.39
Let m be the average number of minutes that exceeds 700 minutes each month.
Equation :
7(19.70 + 1.97 + m X 0.05) = 180.39,
or, 7(19.70 + 1.97 + m X 0.05) = 180.39,
or, 21.67 + 0.05m = 180.39/ 7,
or, 0.05m = 25.77 – 21.67,
0.05m = 4.1
m= 82
Hence, equation to represent the given situation : 7(19.70 + 1.97 + m X 0.05) = 180.39.
