The phone company A Fee and Fee has a monthly cellular plan where a customer pays a flat monthly fee and then a certain amount o

f money per minute used on the phone. If a customer uses 290 minutes, the monthly cost will be $87. If the customer uses 980 minutes, the monthly cost will be $225. A) Find an equation in the form y = m x + b , where x is the number of monthly minutes used and y is the total monthly of the A Fee and Fee plan.

Answer:

y=0.2x+29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y is the total monthly of the A Fee and Fee plan.

x is the number of monthly minutes used.

  • If a customer uses 290 minutes, the monthly cost will be $87, we have the pair (290, 87)
  • If the customer uses 980 minutes, the monthly cost will be $225, this is the coordinate pair (980, 225).

We want to obtain an equation in the form: y=mx+b

First, let us determine the slope, m

Given points (290, 87) and (980, 225):

<u>Slope</u>

m=\dfrac{225-87}{980-290} =\dfrac{138}{690}=0.2

Next, we determine the y-intercept, b.

Substituting the pair (290, 87) and m=0.2 in y=mx+b, we obtain

87=0.2(290)+b

b=87-0.2(290)=29

Therefore, our equation in the form y=mx+b is:

y=0.2x+29

Help please Draw an obtuse angle (labeled BIG) Place a point P inside the angle. Now construct perpendiculars form the point to
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The side closest to P is the side that is on the same side of the angle bisector as P.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector is the line containing all the points equidistant from the sides of the angle. Points on one side of the angle bisector are closer to the angle side that is on that side of the angle bisector.

___

The attached diagram shows the angle bisector as a dashed line. A couple of different locations for P are shown (P1 and P2). Apparently, we're concerned here with the distance from P along the perpendicular to each side of the angle. For P2 (on the left side of the angle bisector), it may be clear that the left perpendicular is shorter than the right one. Likewise, for P1, the right perpendicular will be shorter.
