Question

You have the choice of logging on at one of two Internet cafés. Their posted rates are as follows:

Log-On Café: $6.25 plus $0.25 for every minute online

eCafé: $7.00 plus $0.20 for every minute online

Which café is the best option if you plan on using the Internet for 55 minutes? What is the equation that relates the number of minutes used and the total cost, and how much money will you save?

Answer 1

so we will use X for minutes and write equations for each cafe

Answer 2

Log-On Cafe will be $20.00 For 55 Minutes online. eCafe will be $18 for 55 minutes online. eCafe will have the best plan for 55 minutes online. The equaton will be $7.00 + $0.20(55)=$18.00. You will save $2.00 by choosing eCafe. Hope I was able to help!

Answer 3

A. Log-On Café, the equation is C = $0.25M + $6.25 ,and I'll save $0.75
B. Log-On Café, the equation is C = $0.625M + $2.50, and I'll save $2.00
C. eCafé, the equation is C = $0.70M + $2.00, and I'll save $0.75
D. eCafé, the equation is C = $0.20M + $7.00, and I'll save $2.00

Answer 4

@RhondaSommer

Answer 5

Answer 6

we will work through it together

Answer 7

okay thanks

Answer 8

i tried doing it myself and picked B but i just wanna make sure if its right

Answer 9

for C- were was 0.7 anywhere?

Answer 10

idk I'm honestly confused

Answer 11

Answer 12

no there wasn't

Answer 13

so i guess that ones not the answer

Answer 14

2.50 is no where in the question

Answer 20

so is it D?

Answer 21

hold on. we will see

Answer 22

okay so whats the next step

Answer 23

the equations in A and D are correct. so place 55 for M and solve.

Answer 24

(in both) and see which one is less; and by how much.

Answer 25

in the format y=mx+b?

Answer 26

yep

Answer 27

what numbers can i use?

Answer 28

for X

Answer 29

but dont graph it.
Log-On Café, the equation is C = $0.25M + $6.25
eCafé, the equation is C = $0.20M + $7.00
put 55 in for M

Answer 30

ohhhhhh okay i gotchu

Answer 31

C is the cost for each.

Answer 32

yeah :)

Answer 33

20 for the first and 18 for the second

Answer 34

18 is less by 2

Answer 35

so ecafe and less by 2 :)

Answer 48

Because of a recent rise in the stock market, a market analyst is trying to determine whether to apply a linear model or an exponential model. During the first 4 days of week 5, MyStock prices closed at the following values:


MyStock Price (week 5)
Day Price
1 $61.00
2 $103.70
3 $176.29
4 $299.69


Does the increase in price represent linear or exponential growth, and what is the constant growth rate or growth factor per day?

Answer 49

A. Linear, and the constant growth rate is $43.70 per day
B.Linear, and the growth factor is 1.7 per day
C.Exponential, and the growth factor is 1.7 per day
D.Exponential, and the constant growth rate is $43.70 per day
