Answer:

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
