Using linear functions, it is found that the two plans cost the same for 5000 minutes of calling.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

For Plan A, the cost is of $25 plus an additional $0.09 for each minute of calls, hence the y-intercept is b = 25, the slope is of a = 0.09, and the function is:

A(x) = 0.09x + 25

For Plan B, the cost is of $0.14 for each minute of calls, hence the y-intercept is b = 0, the slope is of a = 0.14, and the function is:

B(x) = 0.14x

The plans cost the same for x minutes of calling, considering that:

B(x) = A(x)

0.14x = 0.09x + 25

0.05x = 250

x = \frac{250}{0.05}

x = 5000

The two plans cost the same for 5000 minutes of calling.

What is the product of three square root of eight times four square root of three? Simplify your answer.
igor_vitrenko [27]
The\ product\ of 3 \sqrt{8}*4 \sqrt{3}\ is\ 24 \sqrt{6}.


First, recognize that all the numbers can be moved around because they are being multiplied together.
Next, rearrange the expression so that the whole-number coefficients are together:

3\sqrt{8}*4\sqrt{6}
3*4*\sqrt{8}*\sqrt{3}

Now try to simplify the square-roots to find any squares inside that can be reduced and taken out of the square-root:

3*4*\sqrt{(2*2*2)}*\sqrt{3}
3*4*\sqrt{4*2}*\sqrt{3}

Multiply the square roots together:
3*4*\sqrt{(4*2*3)}
3*4*\sqrt{(4*6)}

Now take out the square-root of 4 and simplify
3*4*\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{6}
3*4*(2)*\sqrt{6}
24\sqrt{6}

Thus,\ your\ answer\ is\ 24\sqrt{6}

Y=1/3x-3<br> Y=-x+5 <br> How do I solve
ehidna [41]

Since both equations are equal to y, we can just combine them like this:

1/3x-3=-x+5

1/3x=-x+8

4/3x=8 (since x is 1x which is 3/3x)

x=6

Plug x back in:

y=-6+5

y=-1

So x=6 and y=-1

Hope this helped!
