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.

What is the solution to the equation 41/5 =15-(2x+3)
likoan [24]
\frac{41}{5}=15-(2x+3) \\\\ \frac{41}{5}=15-2x-3 \\\\ \frac{41}{5}=12^{(5}-2x^{(5} \\\\ 41=60-10x \\\\ 41-60=-10x \\\\ -19=-10x \\\\ 19=10x \\\\ \boxed{x=\frac{19}{10}}

What do you think are some of the advantages and disadvantages of a capitalist economic system? Do you feel that the advantages
Tcecarenko [31]
Hello!

Advantages of a capitalist economic system:

• Economic growing and expansion.

• Consumer choice (The consumers get to choose what to consume, which leads to better products and services).

• Efficiency of economics (Goods and services based on demand)



Disadvantages of a capitalist economic system:

• Inequality (A small group of people hold most of the wealth)

• There can be a monopoly of power (a specific enterprise is the only supplier of particular commodity)

• Unemployment

• Social benefit ignored. A free market will ignore externalities.

No, I feel the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, because there are more of them.
