Ratio of amount of change to original shown as a percent.
Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you set the equations equal, so 20h=17h+15
Second, you isolate the h, so you would subtract 17h from both sides, giving you 3h=15
Last, you divide both sides by 3 giving you h=5, meaning the companies charge the same price after 5 hours.
The equation is linear because it is in the form y = mx+b, which is slope intercept form
m = 2 is the slope
b = -5 is the y intercept
Graphing y = 2x-5 produces a straight line.
