<h3>Answer:  n+15</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

  • n = number of minutes
  • cost of company X = 3n+30
  • cost of company Y = 2n+15

To find out how much more company X charges, we subtract the two cost expressions

CompanyX - CompanyY = (3n+30)-(2n+15) = 3n+30-2n-15 = n+15 which is the final answer.

--------------

An example:

Let's say you talk on the phone for n = 20 minutes.

Company X would charge you 3n+30 = 3*20+30 = 90 cents

Company Y would charge you 2n+15 = 2*20+15 = 55 cents

The difference of which is 90-55 = 35 cents.

If you plugged n = 20 into the n+15 expression we got, then n+15 = 20+15 = 35 matches up with the previous 35 cents.

This example helps confirm the answer. I'll let you try out other examples.

Are the following (correct , incorrect , linear , nonlinear ) 7n, n+(n+1)+(n+2) , 3n”2 squared “ , 2n+8, n(3 squared) div 2

<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • A) Correct. Linear.
  • B) Correct. Linear.
  • C) Incorrect. Nonlinear.
  • D) Incorrect. Linear.
  • E) Correct. Nonlinear.

=======================================================

Explanation:

A)

The product of a number n and 7 is the same as n*7 or 7*n or 7n

The number next to the variable implies multiplication, so we don't have to write the asterisk or multiplication symbol.

This expression is linear because the exponent is 1. Think of 7n as 7n^1

Or you could graph it out and you would get a straight line.

-------------------

B)

n = first number

n+1 = number right after number n

n+2 = number right after n+1

This shows we have 3 consecutive numbers

The sum of this leads to 3n+3 which is linear.

-------------------

C)

Tina needs to square 3n to get (3n)^2. So she forgot to square the 3

(3n)^2 is equivalent to 9n^2

Both of which are nonlinear. They graph out a curved parabola which isn't a straight line. The exponent being larger than 1 is another indication of a nonlinear expression.

-------------------

D)

The sum of a number and 8 can be represented by n+8 where n is the unknown number. Then sticking "twice" out front means we double all of n+8. So we double it to get 2(n+8) which is equivalent to 2n+16

Tina mistakenly only doubled the n and not the 8

2(n+8) and 2n+16 are both linear. It might help to think of it like y = 2x+16 and to graph that out to get a straight line.

-------------------

E) Tina is correct here in dividing n^3 over 2

This is nonlinear since the exponent is larger than 1. It graphs out a curved cubic, rather than a straight line.

A model car uses the scale 1:43. The actual length of a car is 17.2 feet. What is the length of the model car?
faust18 [17]
17.2/43= 0.4

Since the scale is 1:43, you would just divide the actual length by 43.

0.4:17.2 is congruent to 1:43.

43/17.2= 2.5

1/.04= 2.5

I hope this helps!

the height of a cylinder is three times the diameter of the base . The surface area of thre ylinder is 126pi ft^2. What is thr r
Over [174]
The answer is 3 ft

The surface area (SA) of a cylinder with radius r and height h is:
SA = 2πr² + 2πrh = π(2r² + 2rh)

We have:
SA = 126π ft²
h = 3 * d
d = 2r
h = 3 * 2r = 6r

126π = π(2r² + 2rh)
126 = 2r² + 2rh
126 = 2r² + 2r * 6r
126 = 2r² + 12r²
126 = 14r²
r² = 126/14
r² = 9
r = √9
r = 3
