The expression represents the cost of janelle’s cell phone bill, where m represents the number of minutes of use.
0.05m + 12
what is the constant in the expression?
0.05m
m
12
0.05

12

Step-by-step explanation:

0.05m + 12

0.05 is the coefficient of m variable

12 would be the constant.

This is because:

1. it doesn't change regardless of minutes used. If you use 1,000 minutes or if you uses 3 minutes you will still have to pay those $12 therefore it is a consistent

2. because it fulfills the requirement to be a "constant". The requirement is that it is a number without any variables attached to it. It is standing on its own.  

Hope this helped!

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
