Answer:
$25.00
Step-by-step explanation:
You already know that $85 is an additional fee added to the monthly fees.
So, you first have to subtract 85 from $685 to get the total amount of monthly fees paid over 2 years.
685-85= 600
So, you can conclude that $600 is the total amount of monthly fees paid.
Now, you want to divide 600 by (the number of months in 2 years) to get the amount of monthly fees.
Since there is 24 months in 2 years you do:
600/ 24 which equals 25.
In conclusion, you can find that the monthly fee is $25.00.
It's rational because it contains a repeating digit pattern, 743 (first option).
In particular, if
<em>x</em> = -6.743743…,
then
1000<em>x</em> = -6,743.743743… .
Subtracting, we can eliminate the trailing end and solve for <em>x</em> exactly:
1000<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = -6,743.743743… - (-6.743743…)
999<em>x</em> = -6,737
<em>x</em> = -6,737/999
