Answer:
<em>I earned $856 on the first day</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call
x = earning on the second day
2x = earnings on the first day
3x = earnings on the third day
The total earnings are $2568, thus
x + 2x + 3x = 2568
Simplifying:
6x = 2568
Dividing by 6:
x = 2568/6
x = 428
I earned $428 on the second day.
2x = 2*$428 = $856
I earned $856 on the first day
X represents the number of minutes.
y represents the price of the bill.
Plan A
y = 25.75+0.75x
Plan B
y= 20.99+x
Plan A is better when it is more than 19 minutes.
Plan B is better when it is less than 19 minutes.
Let's have this equation equal y first. All we have to do is add y to both sides and subtract 4 from both sides.
5x-4=y
Now, to get a parallel line, the y intercept has to change. The y intercept (the -4 in the equation) can be an infinite amount of number but -4.
Let's choose 6. We would have 5x+6=y or you could put it in the way the other equation was, 5x-y=-6.
