Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
im not a genius at math, but i will give it a shot
scenario 3:
let m= cost per minute for WDE, let b= flat fee for WDE
42.5=50m+b
65=100m+b
subtract the two equations
65-42.5=50m
m= .45 (this is the cost per minute on WDE wireless)
plug in m=.45 into the first equation
42.5=50(.45)+b
b= 20 (this is the fixed monthly fee for WDE wireless)
HTR offers .25 per minute, whereas WDE offers .45 a minute which means that HTR has the cheaper per minute rate
htr has the equation .25x+30
WDE has the equation .45x+30
set them equal to each other and solve for x .25x+30=.45x+20
x= 50 minutes
Scenario 4:
Same deal as last question, let m=cost/movie, b=flat fee
41.25=5m+b
57.5=10m+b
subtract the two equations and solve for m
57.5-41.25=10m-5m+b-b
m= 3.25 (slope)
b=25 (y intercept)
y=3.25x+25
y=3.25(125)+25 = 431.25
3.25x+25=2.75x+35
.5x= 10
x= 20
