Plug in A = 13

Add 1 to both sides:

Divide 2 to both sides:

Find the cube root of both sides:
![\sf~b=\sqrt[3]{7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csf~b%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B7%7D)
Plan A at 60 calls : 60*.25 + 25 = 15 + 25 = 40
Plan A is equal plan B at 60 calls
So if more than 60 calls the plan B will cost less than plan A
Answer: more than 60 calls
The function has a slope : m = - 2 and contains the point ( 8, 12 ).
y = m x + b
12 = ( - 2 ) * 8 + b
12 = - 16 + b
b = 12 + 16
b = 28
The slope-intercept form of the function is:
y = - 2 x + 28
-5.55 - 8.55c + 4.35c
-8.55c + 4.35c = -4.2c
-5.55 - 4.2c is the answer.
