Answer:

Per minute value fee would be the slope of the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Per minute charges by the phone company = $ 0.50

Connection fee (fixed) charged by company = $ 1.0

We have to represent the total cost in terms of y and also explain the slope of the line.

According to the question:

Let the number of minutes be "x" .

And the total cost charged be "y" .

So,

The total cost = (No. of minutes)(Per minute charge) + Connection fee

Re-arranging in term of x and y.

⇒ total\ cost = (no.\ of\ minutes)(per\ minute\ charge) + connection\ fee

⇒ y=0.50(x)+1   ...equation (i)

Slope- intercept form: y=m(x) +b  m is the slope and b is the y-is   intercept.

⇒ Comparing equation (i) with the slope- intercept form.

⇒ m=0.50  and  b=1

So,

The slope of the line is 0.50 which is also represented by the per minute value of the call.

Per minute value fee would be the slope of the line.

Use two sets of coordinates to write an equation<br> to describe the relationship.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that describes the relationship can be written as y = mx.

Using the two sets of coordinates, (2, 140) and (4, 280), calculate the slope (m) as shown below:

\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{280 - 140}{4 - 2} = \frac{140}{2} = 70

Substitute m = 70 into y = mx

The equation would be:

y = 70x

This equation can be interpreted as follows:

The heart's resting rate is 70 beats each minute.

Find the area of each figure. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
natita [175]

Answer:

Solution given:

1.

diameter(d)=6mm

base(b)=8mm

height (h)=5mm

Area of figure=area of parallelogram +area of semi circle

  • base*height+½π(d/2)²
  • 8*5+½*π×(6/2)²
  • 40+14.14
  • 54.4mm²
  • <u>Area</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>5</u><u>4</u><u>.</u><u>1</u><u>4</u><u>m</u><u>m</u><u>²</u>

2.

for triangle

base[b]=6ft

height(h)=9ft

for square

length[l]=9ft

Area of figure=area of square +area of triangle

  • =l²+½*b*h
  • =9²+½*6*9
  • =81+27
  • =108ft²
  • <u>Area</u><u>:</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u>f</u><u>t</u><u>²</u>

Which of the following numbers is a Mersenne prime?<br> A: 90<br> B: 27 - 1<br> C: 211 - 1<br> D: 15
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

  B:  2⁷-1 = 127

Step-by-step explanation:

A Mersenne prime is a prime of the form 2^n -1, where n is also a prime.

Among the answer choices, neither 90=2·3²·5 nor 15=3·5 is prime. Both 2⁷-1 = 127 and 2¹¹-1 = 2047 are of the right form, but 2047 = 23·89 is a composite number.

  2⁷-1 = 127 is a Mersenne prime
