The equation is y = $72.99 + $28.45(x - 1), where y is the monthly charge and x is the month in which it is calculated.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we need to establish a relation between the difference in costs. For the first month it cost $72.99, during the second month, it costs $101.44 and in the third month, it costs $129.89. Difference in rates

Second months rate - First months rate = $101.44 - $72.99 = $28.45

Third months rate - Second months rate = $129.89 - $101.44 = $28.45.

So for every consecutive month, the charges increase by $28.45

Step 2; Now we develop an equation,

y = $72.99 + $28.45(x - 1), where y is the charge that month and x is the month in which it is calculated.

For x = 1, y = $72.99 + $28.45(1 - 1) = $72.99 + $28.45(0) = $72.99,

For x = 2, y = $72.99 + $28.45(x - 1) = $72.99 + $28.45(2 - 1) = $101.44,

For x = 3, y = $72.99 + $28.45(3 - 1) = $72.99 + $28.45(3-1) = $129.89.

So this is the equation to calculate the cost y the mobile provider charges in month x.

I NEED HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

The answer is D. 200m = 2cm. That's because to get from meters to centimeters, you need to multiply by 100. 200 * 100 is not 2, therefore D is the answer.

Answer:

(B) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small puppet be represented by-----------------s

Let large puppet be represented by-----------------l

Total number of puppets expression will be: s+l =25---------a

The expression for total costs will be : 1$ s + $2l=$30-------b

Equation a can be written as; s= 25-l ------------c

Use equation c in equation b as

$1( 25-l )+$ 2l = $30

25-l + 2l = 30

25+l =30

l= 30-25 =5

l, large puppets = 5

s, small puppets = 25-5 = 20

Answer choice A is incorrect because 25 is the total number of all puppets

Answer choice C and D are incorrect because the numbers are less that that of small puppets.
