Answer: a) each text message costs 5 cents more than each anytime minute


Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of anytime minutes and y be the cost of text messages.

Then for the first month, equation for the total amount Noah paid

200x+400y=80\\\Rightarrow5x+10y=2..\text{[divide 20 on both sides]}\\\Rightarrow15x+30y=6....\text{[multiply 3 on both sides]}...(1)

For the second month, equation for the total amount Noah paid

150x+350y=67.5\\\Rightarrow15x+35y=6.75....\text{[divide 10 on both sides]}....(2)

Now subtract equation (1) from equation (2), we get

5y=0.75\\\Rightarrow\ y=0.15

Put y=0.15 in (1), we get

5x+10(0.15)=2\\\Rightarrow5x+1.5=2\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{2-1.5}{5}=0.10\\\Rightarrow\ x=0.10

Thus, the cost of anytime minutes(x)= $0.10= 10 cents

and the cost of test messages(y)=$0.15=15 cents

Difference=15-10=5 cents

Hence,  each text message costs 5 cents more than each anytime minute.

The statement A is true since on forming the quadratic equations formed you will find the cost of a message being 15 cents and that of anytime as 10 cents.

Given the equation A=250(1.1)t, you can determine that the interest is compounded annually and the interest rate is 10%. Suppose
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

=250(1.025)∧4t

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula we can find the expression for the total amount that accumulates in the given time t.

A=P(1+R/n)ⁿᵇ

where A is the amount, P the principal amount, R the rate as a decimal n is the number of times it is compounded and b the time.

When compounded annually, the expression becomes

A=250(1.1)∧t

When compounded quarterly, we introduce the n in our expression.

A=250(1+0.1/4)∧4t

=250(1.025)∧4t

You joined an online coupon club. You earned 100 bonus points just by signing up. Each month you use the site, you earn another
Blababa [14]
So,

I'm assuming you want me to make a formula for figuring your points after any given month assuming that you use the site at least once a month and you don't spend your points.

After one month, you will have your base 100 points plus an additional 10 points.

100 + 10 = 110

After two months, you will have gained an additional 10.
110 + 10 = 120

We can put this into a function, where P is your points, and m is the number of months you use the site.

P(x) = 100 + 10m

So after 500 months, you will have:

P(x) = 100 + 10(500) = 5100 points!

This is identical with:
y = 100 + 10m

and

y = 10m + 100

So this can be graphed as a linear equation/function with a y-intercept of 100 and a slope of 10/1.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

On a recent day, 8 euros were worth $11 and 40 euros were worth $55. Enter an equation of the form y = kx to show the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars. First solve k which is the slope so k = ( 55- 11) / ( 40 -8) = 1.375

 Y= 1.375x
