Suppose that the credit remaining on a phone card (in dollars) is a linear function of the total calling time (in minutes). When

graphed, the function gives a line with a slope of -0.12. See the figure below. There is $28.96 in credit remaining on the card after minutes of calls. How much credit was there after 21 minutes of calls?

Answer:

Credit remaining after 21 minutes = $30.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Credit remaining on a phone card is a linear function of the total calling time.

When graphed, let the linear function representing the line is,

y = mx + b

Where 'm' = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

From the graph,

Slope of the line = -0.12

y = -0.12x + b

If this line passes through a point (33, 28.96),

28.96 = -0.12(33) + b

b = 28.96 + 3.96

b = 32.92

Therefore, the linear function is,

f(x) = -0.12x + 32.92

where x = calling time

Credit left in the card after 21 minutes,

f(21) = -0.12(21) + 32.92

      = -2.52 + 32.92

      = $30.4

Helga [31]
Since we know that these two are consecutive angles and consecutive angles add up to 180 deg, we can come up with the equation 4x +5x =180. Solving this out shows us that x = 20 and the measure of angle J is 100 deg while the measure of angle M is 80 deg.

Determine whether 5, 238 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, or 10.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

2, 3, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply try each value using long division.

2:

Since 5,238 ends in an even number, that automatically means it is divisible by 2.

5238/2=2619

Now for 3:

5238/3=1746 no remainder or decimal, so 3 also works

4:

You can either do long division again with 4, or you can see if 5238 divided by 2 (5238/2) is also divisible by 2. Since 2619 doesn't end in an even number, 4 is a no go.

Long division 5238/4=1309.5 decimal here, so 4 isn't an answer

5:

This is also very easy, simply check if the number ends in 0 or 5. Since 5,238 does not, 5 doesn't work either.

6:

You can do the same thing as with 4, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 2. Since 1746 ends in an even number, 6 also works.

Long division: 5238/6=873

9:

You can do the same thing as with 6, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 3.

1746/3=548 with a remainder of 2, which means 9 doesn't work

Long division: 5238/9=548.66 repeating

10:

Finally, 10 is another easy one. Simply check if the number ends in 0. 5,238 does not, so 10 doesn't work.

Ugh like terms. Help
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

-4y - 7x^3 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So first lets combine the y terms together, doing this we  get:

-4y + 1 - x^3 - 3x^3 + 1 - 3x^3

Now lets combine the terms with x^3 together

-4y + 1 - 7x^3 + 1

Lastly, lets add the constants

-4y - 7x^3 + 2
