I Think he weighs 27 pounds now correct me if i'm wrong
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

If they have the same charge
x+x+x+x+x+x+x=-42
7x=-42
x=-6
so to check our answer
-6-6-6-6-6-6-6=-42
-12-12-12-6=-42
-24-18=-42
-42=-42
Answer:
input x = - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
A is modelled as y = 5x - 4
B is modelled as y = 3x + 8
We require output of A three times the output of B , then
5x - 4 = 3(3x + 8) ← distribute
5x - 4 = 9x + 24 ( subtract 9x from both sides )
- 4x - 4 = 24 ( add 4 to both sides )
- 4x = 28 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
x = - 7 ← input
