13. $25/month

14. 36 and 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = monthly rate ($/month)

t = time (months)

k = installation cost

The equation for the cost of the internet service C is

C = at + k

Since C = $685. t = 24 months (2 years) and k = $85, we can solve for a:

at = C - k

a = (C - k)/t

= ($685 - $85)/(24 months)

= $25/month

14. Let n = the number

n + 1 = the number after n

Since the sum of two consecutive numbers is 73, we can write the equation as

n + (n + 1) = 73

which simplifies to

2n + 1 = 73

2n = 72

Solving for n, we find that

n = 36

so the other number is 36 + 1 = 37.

Answer:

Equation 2 is non-linear, Equation 1 is linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation is an equation with a constant gradient and can be expressed in the form y = mx + c. Hence Equation 1 Satisfies this as it is in that form and has a constant gradient of 4. Equation 2 is not in the form y = mx + c since there is a square and hence its non-linear.
