Hey there!
<em>C = 0.25x + 40</em>
(a) For this part we solve for C when x = 240. Substitute 240 in for x.
C = 0.25(240) + 40
Multiply 240 by 0.25.
C = 60 + 40
Add.
C = 100
The cost is $100.
<u>Check</u>
100 = 0.25(240) + 40
100 = 60 + 40
100 = 100
(b) For this part we solve for x when C = 180. Substitute 180 for C.
180 = 0.25x + 40
Subtract 40 from each side.
140 = 0.25x
Divide each side by 0.25.
560 = x
This person drove 560 miles.
<u>Check</u>
180 = 0.25(560) + 40
180 = 140 + 40
180 = 180
(c) For this we must make an inequality with C = 150.
Since they want the cost to be <em>no more than</em> 150, we will use the ≥ symbol.
C ≥ 0.25x + 40
Substitute 150 for C. Solve for x.
150 ≥ 0.25x + 40
Subtract 40 from each side.
110 ≥ 0.25x
Divide each side by 0.25.
440 ≥ x
The max number of miles they can drive is 440.
<u>Check</u>
150 ≥ 0.25(440) + 40
150 ≥ 110 + 40
150 ≥ 150
Hope this helps!

Answer:
12.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 12.6 and here is the explanation of using the Distributive Property. Because we are multiplying a whole number by a mixed number, we have to multiply the whole number by the whole number in the mixed number and then multiply the whole number by the fraction. In this case, we have 3 x 4 1/5. We multiply 3x4=12 first, and then we multiply 3x1/5 to get 0.6. 12+0.6=12.6. Hope it helps!
Answer:
The value of y is -5
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
------> equation A
------> equation B
we know that
If x and y satisfy both equations, then (x,y) is the solution of the system of equations
Using a graphing tool
Remember that
The solution of the systems of equations is the intersection point both graphs
The intersection point is (2,-5)
therefore
The solution of the system of equations is the point (2,-5)
The value of y is -5
Answer:
1100 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 35=.05x-20
Why? x is the amount of minutes on his phone. Each minute is 0.05 hence 0.05x. Subtract 20 because that is the flat rate
55=.05x
x=1100
Therefore he was on his phone for 1100 minutes
