Assuming that the cost per minute is the same for both months and the plan fee is the same, you can use y=mx+b for this

y is the cost of the phone plan, x is the cost per minute and b is the start cost.

so    19.41=25x+b for the first month
and  45.65=380x+b for the second month

solve both for b you get:
19.41-25x=b and 45.65-380x=b.  from this we get
19.41-25x=45.65-380x

solve for x

328x=26.24 and x=0.08

this means the cost per minute is 0.08c/min (answer A)

rewrite the equation to calculate b, and where this time, the x is the number of minutes talked.

y=0.08x+b and plug in one of the two months

45.65=0.08 * 380 + b

Solve for b and b is 15.25

so the final equation is

y=0.08x+15.25  (answer B)

Mary and Julie both have a goal of raising $1000 for charity. Mary raises $12 every 4 days. Julie raises $19 every 6 days.
baherus [9]
Julie would reach her goal first. Julie would reach her goal in approximately 316 days while it would take Mary approximately 333 days to reach it.

I know this because the steps to solve the problem are:

1.) 1,000/12 = 83.333 (to find how many days it would take her everyday)

2.) 83.333x4 = 333 (multiplying the answer by four makes it every four days)

3.) determine that it takes Mary 333 days

4.) 1,000/19 = 52.631 (just like step 1 but with different numbers)

5.) 52.631x6 = 316 (just like in step 2 but different numbers)

6.) determine it takes Julie 316 days

7.) 316 < 333 (takes Julie less time)

4(-4x - 3) &gt; 36 with the steps
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

x < -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by 4. Since 4 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

−4x−3> 36/4

​Divide 36 by 4 to get 9.

−4x−3>9

Add 3 to both sides.

−4x>9+3

Add 9 and 3 to get 12.

−4x>12

Divide both sides by −4. Since −4 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.

x< 12/-4

​ Divide 12 by −4 to get −3.

x < -3

A circle has an area of 314.1592. What is the diameter? (round to the nearest whole number)
ad-work [718]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is equal to pi*radius^2

We can then write this as

314.1592=π*r^2

We then divide pi to get

100=r^2

take the square root and you find that the radius equals around 10

The diameter is always equal to the radius times two which means that the diameter is 20

hope this helps
