Trudy bought a $20 prepaid long distance phone card. for every minute that she talks, $0.25 is deducted from her card. The function f(m)=20-0.25m represents the amount of money f(m) she has left after talking m minutes. FInd the zero and explain what it means in the context of the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(m)=20-0.25m to represent the amount of money f(m) she has left after talking m minutes, the zero of the equation can be gotten by setting f(m) to 0

f(m)=20-0.25m

0 =20-0.25m

-20 = -0.25m

m = -20/-0.25

m = 80

Hence Trudy will have talked for 80minutes if she has no money left

step-by-step explanation:

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
