Answer:

  • 60%
  • 30 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction remaining at turn-on is found by setting x = 0.

  y = -0.02·0 +0.60 = 0.60 = 60%

__

The number of hours the battery will last is found by setting y = 0.

  0 = -0.02x +0.60

  0 = -x + 30 . . . . . . . multiply by 50

  x = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . add x

The battery will last 30 hours after you turn on the phone.
