Answer:

I agree with Elena

Step-by-step explanation:

Ants have 6 legs. Elena and Andre write equations showing the proportional relationship between the number of ants, a, to the number of ant legs, v.

Elena writes a = 6 times v

Andre writes v =1/6 times a.

Mathematically

The number of ants a is directly proportional to the number of legs

=a ∝ v

Because if

1 ant = 6 legs

2 ants = x legs

x = 6 legs × 2

x = 12 legs

The number of ants is directly proportional to the number of legs

Therefore, Elena is correct and Andre is wrong.

A basic cellular package costs $20 per month for 60 minutes of calling, with an additional charge of $0.20/min beyond that time.
Anika [276]

Answer: you can use 260 min, 60 min at a fixed price ($20) and extra 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 20 + 0.20(x − 60)

C(x) ≤ 60

20 + 0.20(x − 60) ≤ 60

0.20(x − 60) ≤ 60 - 20

0.20x - 12 ≤ 40

0.20x ≤ 40 + 12

0.20x ≤ 52

x ≤ 52/0.2

x ≤ 260

This way, you can use 260 min, 60 min at a fixed price ($20) and extra 200.
