One smartphone plan costs $52 per month for talk and messaging and $8 per gigabyte of data used each month. A second smartphone

plan costs $82 per month for talk and messaging and $3 per gigabyte of data used each month. Let c represent the total cost in dollars and d represent the amount of data used in gigabytes.
The system of equations
c=52+8d
c−3d=82

can be used to represent this situation.
How many gigabytes would have to be used for the plans to cost the same? What would that cost be?

Answer:

Both plans would cost $100 if 6 gigabytes of data are used.

Explanation:

From the question, the system of equation are correctly represented by using small letter c to represent the total cost in dollars for both equations as already assumed in the question as follows:

c = 52 + 8d ........................... (1)

c = 82 + 3d ........................... (2)

Since c is common to both, equations (1) and (2) can therefore be equated and d solved for as follows:

52 + 8d = 82 + 3d

8d - 3d = 82 - 52

5d = 30

d = 30 / 5

d = 6

Substituting d = 6 into equation (1), we have:

c = 52 + (8 * 6)

c = 52 + 48

c = 100

Since d = 6 and c = 100, it therefore implies that both plans would cost $100 if 6 gigabytes of data are used.

Which describes the first step in solving the equation 4x - 7 = -15?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Add 7 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

You would need to add 7 to both sides to cancel out the 7 on the right side of the equation to get x one step closer to being by itself.

Then you would get 4x = -8.

Next divide by 4 on both sides to get x by itself so do the inverse operation of what 4 was doing to x.

x = -2

Answer:

The answer is y=-x+9.

The first thing to do is find where the line intercepts the y-axis, which is at positive 9 so you'll add a +9 to the end of your equation. Next you find the slope and since it's going down left to right, you know it is a negative. Now slope is found by change in y divided by change in x. And since both change and y and change in x are both 1, 1/1 is 1. And since you know it's negative that means the slope is -x. Altogether you get y= -x+9

Look at this set of ordered pairs:
forsale [732]

Answer: Yes

If I remember correctly, I believe these ordered pairs indicate a function, as there is exactly 1 output for every input (i.e., (output, input)). If there were 2 inputs of the same number, that'd make this relation not a function.
