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.
Answer:
(7/8 - 4/5)^2 = 9/
1600
= 0.005625
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract: 7/
8
- 4/
5
= 7 · 5/
8 · 5
- 4 · 8/
5 · 8
= 35/
40
- 32/
40
= 35 - 32/
40
= 3/
40
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(8, 5) = 40. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 8 × 5 = 40. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - seven eighths minus four-fifths = three fortieths.
Exponentiation: the result of step No. 1 ^ 2 = 3/
40
^ 2 = 32/
402
= 9/
1600
In words - three-fortieths squared = nine one-thousand six-hundredths.
