Given that Kimora’s cell phone company charges her $35 a month for phone service plus $.05 for each text message sent.
Kimora's cell phone bill for one month is $52.
We need to determine the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month.
Also, we need to write and equation and solve it.
<u>The equation:</u>
Let x denote the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month.
Thus, the equation is given by
Therefore, the equation for the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month is
<u>Solving the equation:</u>
We need to solve the equation
Subtracting both sides of the equation by 35, we get;
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.05, we get;
Therefore, the number of messages sent is 340.
I think it is 0.9 I think
Answer:
x=10 and x=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor:
(x-10)(x+9)=0
x-10=0

We will need to split the middle term and use the grouping method. To do this multiply the coefficient of the first term (6) against the coefficient of the last term (10):
6 * 10 = 60
Factors of 60 = +-(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60)
From the list of factors find two numbers that when added together give -19 and when multiplied together give 60. -15 and -4 added together give -19 and multiplied together give 60 so split the middle term by rewriting these values back into the expression:
6x^2 - 15xy - 4xy + 10y^2
Now use the grouping method, take out the highest common factor between the two sets of terms:
3x(2x - 5y) - 2y(2x - 5y)
Group the outside terms:
(3x - 2y)(2x - 5y)
Answers
6 = -3*-2
10 = 5*2
5*3+2*2=19
thus
(2y-3x)(5y-2x)
y = cost = $25
25 = 0.75 +10
subtract 10 from each side
15=0.75x
x = 15/0.75 = 20
