The total cost when 881 minutes is used is $477.50.
<h3>What are the equation that model the question?</h3>
a + 480b = 277 equation 1
a + 990b = 532 equation 2
Where:
- a = flat fee
- b = variable fee
<h3>What is the flat fee and the variable fee?</h3>
Subtract equation 1 from equation 2
510b = 255
b = 255 / 510
b = $0.50
In order to determine the flat fee, substitute for b in equation 1
a + 480(0.5) = 277
a + 240 = 277
a = 277 - 240
a = $37
<h3>What is the total cost when 881 minutes is used?</h3>
Total cost = flat fee + (variable cost x number of minutes spoken)
$37 + (881 x 0.5) = $477.50

Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
A certain company employs 6 senior officers and 4 junior officers. If a committee is to be created that is made up of 3 sr officers and 1 jr officer, how many different committees are possible?
8
24
58
80*
210
I initially got this one wrong, but after I saw the answer which is 80, I was able to solve it. But im not sure if this is the proper way of solving it, or if someone can suggest a more efficient way of solving it?
This is what I did, which was wrong:
Sr Officers + Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) + (4!/3! = 4) = 24
It seems like the correct answer is:
Sr Officers X Jr Officers
(6!/3! 3! = 20) x (4!/3! = 4) = 80
If this is the most efficient way of solving, when do you know when to add them as opposed to multiplying them in this case?
