<h2>34</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

   The minimum charges for the phone service is $35. For, each text message, $0.50 is charged over and above the minimum charges.

   This problem can be modeled as a linear equation in the number of text messages sent as follows:\textrm{Total bill = Minimum charges + (Charge per message)x(Number of messages)}

\textrm{Total Bill = $}35\textrm{ + (Number of messages)x}($0.50)

   Given that the total bill is $52, number of text messages can be easily computed.

52\textrm{ = }35+\textrm{(Number of messages)x}0.50

\textrm{(Number of messages)x0.50 = }52-35=7

\textrm{Number of messages = }\frac{7}{0.5}=14

∴Number of text messages Juan sent = 14.

1. You have that a<span> student's pay of $18 an hour </span>is <span>$4 more than twice the amount the student earns per hour at an internship.

 2. So, let's call the </span><span>hourly pay of the internship: "x". Then, you have:

 18=2x+4

 3. When you clear the variable "x", you obtain:

 18-4=2x
 14=2x
 x=14/2
 x=$7

 Therefore, the answer is: T</span><span>he hourly pay of the internship is $7.</span>

Ali finished his history assignment in 1/4

Hello there!

For this you simply need to give both fractions a common denominator!

The easiest way to do this specific problem would be to make the denominator 12. Why 12? Because 4 x 3 = 12.

So:

1/4 --> ?/12 --> 1 (3) / 12 --> 3/12

2/3 --> ?/12 --> 2 (4) / 12 --> 8/12

Total amount of time means the sum (adding them together).

When adding fractions, you MUST have a common denominator! (Which is what we just did).

So 3/12 + 8/12 = (8+3) / 12 = 11/12 hours

Notice how the denominator stayed the same? When adding/subtracting fractions, the denominator stays the same! :)

Hope this helped!

Which of shakina's statements regarding acceleration and velocity is false? "when the acceleration is negative, the velocity can
Mekhanik [1.2K]
Let's start by imagining a rock being thrown to the air.
Let's say that going up is the positive direction and so, going down is the negative.
The acceleration is pointing down (because of gravity) so it's always negative. While the rock is going up, it's velocity/speed is positive, but the acceleration is negative.
While the rock is going down, both acceleration and speed are negative.
This shows that the first statemente is true, but the second is false.
You can also think that if you define going DOWN as the POSITIVE direction, you can have both positive acceleration and speed, or positive acceleration and negative speed.
