Sarah owes 22.40 for her text messaging in the month of march. if her texting message plan costs 14 dollars for the first 250 messages and .5 cent for each additional messages how many text messages did she send that month?

The answer is 267.

If we wanted to represent this scenario as an equation, it would be 22.40-14+.5x (x being the amount of texts after 250). We are using PEMDAS, but because the variable is unknown, we skip multiplication and just go left to right. 22.40 - 14 = 8.40. With 8.40, we now know how much it costed AFTER 250 messages (how much she owes after $14). If we want to find how many PER 50 cents, we have to DIVIDE (reverse of multiplication). 8.4 / .5 = 16.80. Because you can't send .8 of a text message, you round to get 17. 250 + 17 = 267 (messages sent that month).

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.

solution:

→c= a b , that is product of a and b is possible only when when a is m × n matrix and b is n × p matrix.

that is, number of columns of a= number of rows of b.

so, size of matrix , c= a b is , if a = (m × n)matrix

b= (n × p)matrix

then a b = [ (m × n)matrix] ×[   (n × p)matrix ]

→→c= a b= [m × p ] matrix

→→size of product a b will be equal to = number of rows of a × number of columns of b
