the credit remaining on a phone card in dollars is a linear function of the total calling time made with the card in minutes. The remaining credit after 30 minutes of calls is $15.20 and the remaining credit after 47 minutes of calls is $12.48 what is the remaining credit after 51 minutes of calls

he credit remaining on a phone card (in dollars) is a linear function of the

total calling time made with the card (in minutes), as shown in the figure below.

The remaining credit after 45 minutes of calls is $22.80 , and the remaining

credit after 64 minutes of calls is $19.76.

What is the remaining credit after 73 minutes of calls?

;

Not sure what figure you are referring to, write an equation from the given values:

Assign the values as follows

x1 = 45; y1 = 22.80

x2 = 64; y2 = 19.76

:

Find the slope (m) using the formula: m = %28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29

m = %2819.76-22.80%29%2F%2864-45%29 = %28-3.04%29%2F%2819%29

m = -.16

:

Write the equation using the point/slope formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 22.80 = -.16(x - 45)

y - 22.80 = -.16x + 7.2

y = -.16x + 7.2 + 22.80

y = -.16x + 30

;

Use this equation to find the credit (y) when minutes (x) = 73

y = -.16(73) + 30

y = -11.68 + 30

y = $18.32; credit after 73 minute of calls

That you can also see the original value of the phone card: x=0, y = $30

Step-by-step explanation:

correct answer:

a + bi

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
