pls help
OpenStudy (dan815):
dont RUSH ME!
OpenStudy (jack1):
first solve for c (y-intercept)
y = mx + c
28 = -0.15 (20) + c
c = ?
OpenStudy (dan815):
this is what u got so far, u have a slope and a point on the line

is 31?
OpenStudy (jack1):
yep
OpenStudy (jack1):
so that was the initial credit in $
so what does that equal in minutes (x)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay um how do i do this.
OpenStudy (dan815):
do you know to get equation of lines from slope and a point given

y = mx + c
c = 31
m=-.15
y=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay one sec
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 0=-.15(x)+31?
OpenStudy (jack1):
yep, so what does x =?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
206.6666 lol thats what i get after 31=-.15x

yep, thats how many minutes of calls you can make before your balance drops to 0
now, when x = 7, what does y =?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
29.95
OpenStudy (jack1):
perfect, there's your answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
why 7 though?
OpenStudy (jack1):
the q states (after 7 minutes of calls) so x = 7
and (what is your balance?) so must be between $31(x=0) and $28 (x=20)
