You are choosing between different cell phone plans. The first plan charges a rate of 19 cents per minute. The second plan charges a monthly fee of $29.95 plus 8 cents per minute. Let t be the number of minutes you talk and C1 and C2 be the costs (in dollars) of the first and second plans. Give an equation for each in terms of t, and then find the number of talk minutes that would produce the same cost for both plans. C1= ______ C2= ______
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
