The telephone company offers two billing plans for local calls. Plan one charges $28 per month for unlimited calls and plan to charges $14 per month $0.04 per call.

So I believe we're looking for the best long term plan

the first plan is staight forward so lets look at the secod one

14 + .04 times X

so if you make more than 350 calls (or more than 35o mins worth of calling time) you'll be charged more than the first plan due to 350 calls will equal 14 dollars with makes the bill 28 dollars which equals out the second and first plan

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
