Answer:

The length of the call that would cost the same with both cards is 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The cost with card A can be expressed as follows:

cost A = 30 + 2 · m

Where "m" is the length of the call in minutes.

In the same way, the cost of card B will be:

cost B = 10 + 6 · m

Where "m" is the length of the call in minutes.

We have to find the value of "m" for which the call would cost the same with both cards.

Then:

cost A = cost B

30 + 2 · m = 10 + 6 · m

Subtract 10 and 2 · m to both sides of the equation:

30 - 10 =  6 · m - 2 · m

20 = 4 · m

Divide by 4 both sides of the equation:

20/4 = m

5 = m

The length of the call that would cost the same with both cards is 5 minutes.

Have a nice day!

What is the square root of 50 rounded to the nearest hundredth?
tamaranim1 [39]
Let's write an inequality, such as follows: x < sqrt(50) < y. Square both sides of the equation. We get x^2 < 50 < y^2. Obviously, x is between 7 and 8. Also notice, that for integers a,b, (ab)^2/b^2, equals a^2. So let's try values, like 7.1. Using the previous fact, (7.1)^2, equals (71)^2/100. So, (7.1)^2, equals 50.41. Thus, our number is between 7 and 7.1. We find, with a bit of experimentation, that the square root of 50, is 7.07.
