Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out whether it is rational or irrational let's write the definitions of both

Rational: Any number that can be written as a fraction, integer, whole number, natural number

Irrational: Numbers that can't be written as a fraction

This has to be rational because every rational number can be written as a repeating decimal.

Gre4nikov [31]

We know that

• Lashonda purchased a prepaid phone card for $20.

• Long-distance calls cost 8 cents a minute.

• The remaining credit on her card is $17.12.

This problem can be expressed as

$20-0.08x=17.12$

Where <em>x</em> is the number of minutes.

We solve the equation for <em>x</em>

$\begin{gathered} -0.08x=17.12-20 \\ -0.08x=-2.88 \end{gathered}$

Then, we divide by -0.08 the equation

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-0.08x}{-0.08}=\frac{-2.88}{-0.08} \\ x=36 \end{gathered}$ <h2>Therefore, Lashonda's call last 36 minutes.</h2>

The answer is D. Easy way to tell, the less than or equal to sign indicates a solid line in the graph. Equal=solid line. Also when you solve for y, the slope of the line (-2/3)is negative, indicating a line sloping downward.
