The answer is 2442.81 may i please get brainliest
Answer:
c. $0.75 per minute at one rate for the first 5 minutes and $0.25 per minute thereafter
Step-by-step explanation:
The last 5 minutes of the 12-minute call cost ...
$5.50 -4.25 = $1.25
so the per-minute rate at that time is ...
$1.25/(5 min) = $0.25/min . . . . . . . . matches choice C only
__
You know the answer at this point, but if you want to check the rate for the first 5 minutes, you can subtract 2 minutes from the 7-minute call to find that ...
The first 5 minutes cost $4.25 - 2·0.25 = $3.75, so are charged at ...
$3.75/(5 min) = $0.75/min . . . . . . . matches choice C
X - 2y = -24
x - y = 4
Isolate x in the first equation by adding 2y to both sides.
x = -24 + 2y
Now plug in this value of x into the second equation.
(-24 + 2y) - y = 4
Solve. Combine all like terms, 2y - y.
-24 + y = 4
Add 24 to both sides to isolate y.
y = 28
Now plug y back into the first equation to find x.
x - 2(28) = -24
x - 56 = -24
Add 56 to both sides to isolate x.
x = 32
The solution is (32, 28).
