Question 187327: I have a math project for school and it involves finding the equations of the following companies' data. I know how to graph these and the equations for each part of each graph; however, I don't know how to find an equation that will take into account the change in cost per minute. Thanks for any help!
Here is the data:
Company A: $30 fee, 10 cents a minute for the first 300 minutes, then 8 cents a minute after that.
Company B: No fee, 25 cents a minute for 200 minutes, 10 cents a minute for the next 500 minutes then 5 cents a minute.
Company C: $50 flat fee for the first 500 minutes, then 10 cents per minute.

Question 188497: I am having a hard time trying to factor this equation. (x²-x+1)
Im starting to think it is prime but I'd like to make sure.
This is how i worked it out.
i know that each set of parantheses will start out with "x". then i would figure out what times what will give you a positive one and subtract to give you a negative one. If you could please explain to me how to come about getting this answer, that would be greatly apprciated.
