Using a linear function, it is found that Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
Considering the flat cost as the y-intercept and the cost per gigabyte as the slope, the cost of using g gigabytes is:
C(g) = 4g + 69.
She wants to keep her bill at $83.80 per month, hence:
C(g) = 83.80
4g + 69 = 83.80
4g = 14.80
g = 14.80/4
g = 3.7.
Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
20x+5−0=5x+(32.5)(2)
20x+5+0=5x+65
(20x)+(5+0)=5x+65(Combine Like Terms)
20x+5=5x+65
20x+5=5x+65
Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
20x+5−5x=5x+65−5x
15x+5=65
Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides.
15x+5−5=65−5
15x=60
Step 4: Divide both sides by 15.
15x
15
=
60

x=4

From a reliable source, the maximum capacity of a standard bus used as school bus is 72 students. Because the bus that Mr. Tuttle drives is already 3/4 full, only 1/4 of the capacity is unoccupied. With this, the number of the empty seats is calculated by multiplying 72 by 1/4 as shown below.
empty seats = (1/4)(72) = 18
Therefore, the bus could have accommodated 18 more students.
The answer is 2
Hope this helps u. I’m more than welcome to help u!!! :)
