Let's compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges: convert each given proper fraction into its decimal counterpart:
3 63/80 => 3 .788 approx.
3 1/5 => 3.2
3 11/20 => 3.55
It's now an easy matter to arrange these numbers from least to greatest:
3.2, 3.55, 3.79, or
3 1/5, 3 11/20, 3 63/80
Answer:
<em>y=0.10(t)+0.25 </em>
<em>27 minutes and 30 seconds </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that you start with 25 cents as a service fee, this is for making the call. For each minute you talk, 10 cents are added. Multiply the number of minutes spent by 10 cents a minute for the cost based on the call. Then add the 25 cents service fee.
If you talked for 5 minutes:
y=0.10(5)+0.25
y=0.50+0.25
y=0.75
75 Cents
For three dollars, you would plug in 3 for y
3.00=0.10(t)+0.25
-0.25 -0.25
2.75=0.10(t)
divide both sides by 0.10 to get
27.5=t
You can talk for 27 minutes and 30 seconds
27 minutes
<u>Hope this helps :-)</u>
