Jacob’s parents have allowed him to get a cell phone but he must pay his own cell phone bill. He pays a flat rate of $35 and $0.50 for every minute he talks on the phone. If y represents the total cost of the bill and x represents minutes talking on the phone, which equation best fits the situation?

35 plus x.50=y

Step-by-step explanation:

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
