Grace is comparing cell phone plans. A prepaid phone plan costs $0.20 per minute and has no monthly fee. A contracted phone plan costs $50 per month and $0.02 per minute. How will the graphs of the monthly costs of the two cell phone plans compare where x represents minutes purchased in a month? The prepaid phone plan will have a steeper line and lower y-intercept. The contracted phone plan will have the same steepness and a higher y-intercept. The prepaid phone plan will have a less steep line and the same y-intercept. The contracted phone plan will have a steeper line and same y-intercept.

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .

step-by-step explanation:

the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial of the form a^2-2ab+b^2:

option a. true

step-by-step explanation:

9x^2-12x+4

comparing with the form a^2-2ab+b^2

1.) a^2=9x^2

solving for a: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(a^2)=sqrt(9x^2)

a=sqrt(9) sqrt(x^2)

a=3x

2.) b^2=4

solving for b: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(b^2)=sqrt(4)

b=2

to be a perfet square trinomial 2ab must be equal to 12x. let's check:

2ab = 2 (3x) (2)

2ab = 12x

correct
