Greetings from Brasil...

According to the statement of the question, we can assemble the following system of equation

X = 7 + 3Y i

X + Y = 75 ii

So, multiplying ii by -1 and adding with i

X = 7 + 3Y

- X - Y = - 75

- Y = 7 + 3Y - 75

4Y = 68

Y = 17

for X we will use ii:

X + Y = 75

X + 17 = 75

X = 58

The smaller number is: 17

inn [45]

Answer:

The constant in the expression is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of the expression is the value that is independent of the number of minutes Janelle uses. The expression can  be written as :

f(m)=0.05m +12

Example if m is 1 or 2

f(1) = 0.05(1) +12 = 12.05

f(2= = 0.05*2 +12 =0.1 +12 = 12.1

The value 12 is the minimum price of the bill indepent of the consumption of minutes of Janelle. She will always be charged this value.
