The monthly cost will be $17.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the monthly cost (in dollars) of a long-distance phone plan is a linear function of the total calling time (in minutes) then this can be presented in a table form as;

<u>Time in minutes (x)</u>        <u>Cost in dollars (y)</u>

50                                          $12.55

102                                         $ 17.23

Take the values as ordered pairs to represent coordinates for points that satisfy the linear function

(50,12.55)  and (102,17.23)

Finding the slope of the graph using these points

slope,m=Δy/Δx

m=Δy=17.23-12.55 =4.68

Δx=102-50=52

m=4.68/52 =0.09

Finding the equation of the linear function using m=0.09, and point (50,12.55)

m=Δy/Δx

0.09=y-12.55/x-50

0.09(x-50)=y-12.55

0.09x-4.5=y-12.55

0.09x-4.5+12.55=y

y=0.09x+8.05

So for 101 minutes , the cost will be;

y=0.09*101 +8.05

y=9.09+8.05 = $17.14

Answer:

Slope Intercept Form: y=3x+10

Slope: 3

y: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y-3x=10    Add 3x to both sides. The y has to be isolated.

So it is y=10+3x     So we have to reorder it so y=3x+10

Which number line shows point A at 3, point B at −1.5, point C at , and point D, which is the opposite of point A?
Oduvanchick [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that point A is at 3.

This is 3 units to the right of 0 on the number line.

The point that is opposite of A should be 3 units to the left of 0.

That point will be at -3.

Therefore you have to choose the point that is on -3.

It should be similar to one in the attachment.

For this question, we need the opposite side and have the opposite

with that said, out of SOH, CAH, TOA it's fastest to use TOA

tan(75)=17/x

17/(tan(75))=x

x= 4.555136271

which rounds to
