Q: A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data. The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte.

If d represents the number of additional megabytes used and c represents the total charges at the end of the month, which linear equation can be used to determine a user's monthly bill?
Possible Answers: A. c = 60 - 0.05d , B. c = 60.05d , C. c = 60d - 0.05 , D. c = 60 + 0.05d

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data
  • The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte
  • d represents the number of additional megabytes used
  • c represents the total charges at the end of the month

We need to find which equation can be used to determine a user's monthly bill

The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where b is the constant amount and m is the rate of change

∵ The company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data

- That means it is a constant amount each month

∴ b = 60

∵ The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte

- That means it depends on the number of additional megabyte,

   so it is not constant, it is the rate of change

∴ m = 0.05

∵ d represents the number of additional megabytes

∴ x = d

∵ c represents the total charges at the end of the month

∴ y = c

Substitute y by c, m by 0.05, x by d and b by 60 in the form of the linear equation above

∴ c = 0.05 d + 60

- We can rearrange the terms of the right hand side

∴ c = 60 + 0.05 d

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d

if the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, 1 egg will remain. if the eggs are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs will remain. if
Yanka [14]

The least number of eggs that could be in the basket is 119.

Multiple of the number:

The multiple is the numbers you get when you multiply a certain number by an integer.

Given,

If the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, 1 egg will remain.

If the eggs are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs will remain.

If the eggs are removed 4, 5, or 6 at a time, then 3, 4, and 5 eggs will remain, respectfully.

But if they are taken out 7 at a time, no eggs will be left over.

Here we need to find the least number of eggs in the basket.

Let the number of eggs in the basket be N.

We know that,

if the eggs in a basket are removed 2 at a time, one eggs will remain.

So N is 1 less than a multiple of 2, so

=> N=2A-1

If they are removed 3 at a time, 2 eggs remain.

So N is 2 more, and therefore 1 less than, a multiple of 3, so

=> N=3B-1

If the eggs are removed 4...at a time, then 3...eggs remain,

So N is 3 more, and therefore 1 less than, a multiple of 4, so

=> N=4C-1

Similarly,

For 5,

=> N = 5D - 1

For 6,

=> N = 6E - 1

So,  if they are taken out 7 at a time, no eggs will be left over.

So,

N => 7F

Where A,B,C,D,E, and F are any positive integer.

Therefore,

N = 2A-1 = 3B-1 = 4C-1 = 5D-1 = 6E-1 = 7F

Add 1 to all those:

N+1 = 2A = 3B = 4C = 5D = 6E = 7F+1

Through this,

N + 1 = 7F + 1

has to be a common multiple of 2,3,4,5,6.

So, the LCM of 2,3,4,5,6 is 60.

So N+1 is a multiple of 60 which means N is 1 less than a multiple of 60.

So we find the least multiple of 60 that is 1 more than a multiple

of 60.

The multiples are, 60, 59, ....but 59 is not a multiple of 7.

The next multiple of 60 is 120.  

1 less than 120 is 119, and sure enough, 119 is a multiple of 7.

So,

=> 119 = 17*7.

Therefore, the least number of eggs that could be in the basket is 119.

If possible, draw a line of symmetry in each of the following figures or words. If it is not possible to draw a line of symmetry
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

  a) none

  b) vertical through the middle

  c) horizontal through the middle

  d) none

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A repeated asymmetrical pattern rarely has a line of symmetry. (I can't think of a case where it does.)

__

b) This figure has left-right symmetry about its centerline. (In general, a light bulb will not, because the screw threads are asymmetrical.)

__

c) Each of the letters is symmetrical about its horizontal centerline, so  the word is as well.

__

d) The letter S is symmetrical about its center point, but not about any horizontal or vertical line. This word is not symmetrical about any line.

__

Write two numbers that multiply to the value on top and add to the<br> value on bottom.
Airida [17]
I think the answer is 2 and -15. Because 2 times - 15 is -30 and 2 and -15 can be added to -1.
