Step-by-step explanation:

The question does not state expressly what we are expected to solve for,

but we can proceed with the definition of terms in the given equation, and solve for the monthly cost y assuming a particular value for x the number of text

The given equation is the same as the equation of a straight line

y= mx+c

Now comparing the given equation with the straight-line equation

we can see that the $5 is a flat fee paid monthly which is the constant term

say we set the number of texts sent in a month is 400.

we can calculate the monthly cost as

y= 0.14(400)+5

y= 56+5

y=$61

The monthly cost as a result of sending 400 texts is $61

How do i do numer 1 and 3.?!?!?!?!?!
Anna11 [10]
To solve each question, all you've got to do is add the two numbers together and then graph the result on the number line.

1.) -3 +(-1.5)
Add 3 to -1.5. It would be the same as subtracting 1.5 from -3(-3 - 1.5)
Final Answer: -4.5<span>
Or, since you are using a number line, start on -3 and go left 1.5 units and you will land on the -4.5 point. You go to the left because you are adding a negative number..
</span>
2.) 1.5+3.5
Add<span>
Final Answer: 5
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1.5 and go to the right 3.5 and you will land on 5. You go to the right because you are adding a positive number.<span>

</span>3.) 1/4 + 1/2
Multiply 1/2 by 2 to make both fractions have the same denominator
1/4 + 2/4
Add<span>
Final Answer: 3/4
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1/4 and go up 2/4 and you will land on 3/4 as the result.<span>

</span>4.) -1 1/2 + (-1 1/2)
Add -1 1/2 to -1 1/2. This would be the same as subtracting 1 1/2 from -1 1/2(-1 1/2 - 1 1/2)<span>
Final Answer: -3
</span><span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on -1 1/2 and go to the left 1 1/2 and you will land on the -3 point.</span>

The question above was not written properly

Complete Question

Lacey and Haley are rewriting expressions in an equivalent, simpler form.

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

Answer:

a) Haley is correct, Lacey simplified wrongly.

b) Haley is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

For Question a, when it comes to simplifying algebraic expression that has to do with powers, there are certain rules that should be followed.

For example

x^a × x^b = x^(a + b)

For Haley, she simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

She is correct because this follows the product rule of powers or exponents above

= x³⋅ x² = x³+² = x⁵

For Lacey she is wrong because:

x³ + x² ≠ x⁵

x³ + x² when simplified as quadratic equation = x²(x + 1)

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

For question b, when we have two distinct or different numbers with the same power(exponents) the rule states that:

x^a × y^a = (x × y)^a = (xy)^a

Haley is simplified wrongly. She did not apply the rule above

Haley simplified 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵+⁵

= 12^10, this is wrong.

The correct answer according to the rule =

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵ = 12⁵

Therefore,

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ ≠ 12^10

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = 12⁵

Haley is wrong.
