Explanation:
As points have three coordinates i.e. x, y and z hence the sketch of the given four points is drawn in 3D shape and for that picture is attached here with this answer.
Points are given in the format as below
(value of x-coordinate , value of y-coordinate , value of z-coordinate)
In the attachment:
Point A = (0,5,2) (in blue color)
Point B = (4,0,-1) (in purple color)
Point C = (2,4,6) (in orange color)
Point D = (1,-1,2) (in black color)
Answer:
$21.2
Step-by-step explanation:
From the problem given, we express them as algebra so that we can easily solve;
the total charge on a call greater than 120min is given as;
120x + y(n - 120) = total cost of call
where n is the number of minutes which is greater than 120;
- Ethan paid $26.80 for 175 mins
n = 175min here;
120x + y(175 - 120) = 26.80
120x + 55y = 26.80 ----- (I)
- $32.40 for 210 minutes
n = 210min
120x + y(210 - 120) = 32.4
120x + 90y = 32.4 ----- (II)
Now let us solve both equations for y and x;
120x + 55y = 26.80 ----- (I)
120x + 90y = 32.4 ----- (II)
subtract the two equations;
90y - 55y = 32.4 - 26.8
35y = 5.6
y = = 0.16cents
then x;
120x = 26.8 - 55y from equation I
120x = 26.8 - 55(0.16)
120x = 18
x = = 0.15cents
Find the cost of 140min of talk time;
n =140min;
= 120(0.15) + 0.16(140 - 120)
= 18 + 0.16(20)
= 18 + 3.2
= $21.2
