Answer:You would have to use over 200 minutes in a month in order for the second plan to be preferable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of minutes that you use in a month.

The first plan charges a rate of 25 cents per minute. It means that the cost of using x minutes in a month with this plan is 0.25x.

The second plan charges a monthly fee of $29.95 in addition to 10 cents per minute. It means that the cost of using x minutes in a month with this plan is

29.95 + 0.1x

For the second plan to be preferable, its cost would be lesser than the first plan. Therefore,

29.95 + 0.1x < 0.25x

29.95 < 0.25x - 0.1x

29.95 < 0.15x

0.15x > 29.95

x > 29.95/0.15

x > 200

Emilys family loves to work together in the garden. They have a slight preference for flowers, as 60% their plants are flowers a
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Number of Flowering Plants = 30

Number of vegetable plants = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Im assuming the question is asking for the number of vegetables and number of flowers.

We need to convert 60% and 40% to decimal. The process is dividing by 100. Hence,

60% = 60/100 = 0.6

and

40% = 40/100 = 0.4

We multiply these with the total number to get number of vegetable and flowering plants.

So,

Number of Flowering Plants = 0.6 * 50 = 30

Number of vegetable plants = 0.4 * 50 = 20

Total income = 34696.
Total expenses = 33782.

Profit = Income - Expenses
  = 34696 -33782
  = 914

The 1st selection ($914 profit) is appropriate.

Find the missing coordinate to complete the ordered-pair solution to the given linear equation: A) y+6x=5 <br>      (a) (-1,?)  
N76 [4]
A
a) y+6x=5 if x= -1  then y+6(-1)=5 then y = 11
b) same thing if x = 3 then y+6(3)=5 y+18=5  subtract both sides by -18 and leave y on left then add 5+(-18)= 13 then y=13

B same as above
question (a) asks you to solve for y because x is -2
(b) asks you to solve for x because y is known
3x+2y=-6 if y = 3 you write 3x+2(3)=-6 3x+6=-6 move the +6 over to right side by subtracting 6 from both side 3x=-6 + -6 so 3x=-12 to get rid of the 3 and only leave the x you want to divide both side by 3 then x= -12/3 then the answer would be x=-4
