Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 3 numbers be 4x , 5x and 6x
4x + 6x = 5x + 55
10x = 5x + 55                      Subtract 5x from both sides.
<u> 5x     5x</u>
5x = 55                                Divide by 5
x = 55/5
x = 11
Therefore the numbers are
3*11 = 33
4*11 = 44
5*11 = 55
 
        
             
        
        
        
= 16 + 49 - 3(11)  - 4(10)
= 16 + 49 - 33 - 40
= -8
        
             
        
        
        
The independent would be the base amount (0.25 in this case) The dependent would be :
the sum of the minutes x 0.25 or the entire phone bill
