Step-by-step explanation:
The monthly cost will be $17.14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the monthly cost (in dollars) of a long-distance phone plan is a linear function of the total calling time (in minutes) then this can be presented in a table form as;
<u>Time in minutes (x)</u> <u>Cost in dollars (y)</u>
50 $12.55
102 $ 17.23
Take the values as ordered pairs to represent coordinates for points that satisfy the linear function
(50,12.55) and (102,17.23)
Finding the slope of the graph using these points
slope,m=Δy/Δx
m=Δy=17.23-12.55 =4.68
Δx=102-50=52
m=4.68/52 =0.09
Finding the equation of the linear function using m=0.09, and point (50,12.55)
m=Δy/Δx
0.09=y-12.55/x-50
0.09(x-50)=y-12.55
0.09x-4.5=y-12.55
0.09x-4.5+12.55=y
y=0.09x+8.05
So for 101 minutes , the cost will be;
y=0.09*101 +8.05
y=9.09+8.05 = $17.14

6(x-2.5) ≥ 8-6(3.5+x)
A number is before a parenthesis. The first step is to multiply.
6(x-2.5) = 6x -15
8-6(3.5+x)
2(3.5+x)= 7+2x
6x-15≥7+2x
Now solve
6x-15≥7+2x
-2x -2x
(-2x+2x)= They cancel out
(6x-2x)= 4x
4x-15≥7
+15 +15
4x≥22
/4 /4
You get= x≥5.5
Im guessing “x” could equal any number so ... x + 2 = 6 x 6 = 36 if x = 4 .
