Answer:
$C = 0.30(m) + 15
C is bill cost
m is number of minutes used
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to write an equation that estimates the bill cost of Maggie’s phone bills.
We proceed as follows;
Now, let’s try and find the base fee.
We can calculate this using her bill for September.
Mathematically;
Bill = (Cost per minute * total minutes) + Base fee
Here, $0.30 per minute for 120 minutes will yield a total of 120 * 0.3 = $36
This means the base fee would be $51-$36 = $15
Now let’s say the bill is $C, and the number of minutes used is m
Mathematically;
$C = 0.30(m) + 15
the slope intercept is 3/2 if you want the transfered equation y=3/2x+8
To complete this equation, it is vital to know the slope. To find the slope using points, you subtract the first x from the second, and the first y from the second. This gives you a slope of 4. Then, you must follow point-slope form and choose one of the order pairs to use. You then write y then the negative of your number. Since the number is already negative, you turn it into a positive. On the other side of the "=" sign, you write your slope, 4 distributing to x. Then you write the negative of your x value. Since it is already negative, it turns into a positive. This gives you a final answer of y+1=4(x+2). I realize that this doesn't line up with your fill-in-the-blank answer, so I am sorry if it doesn't work.
