$0.96 the first minute and $0.72 thereafter! What kind of 1-900 number is this! Whatever...on to the math. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let's say that \"f%28t%29\" is a function that states the cost of this phone call after \"t\" minutes.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t\" is the number of minutes you've been on the phone. Let's figure out what \"f%28t%29\" should be. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Well, we know that just picking up the phone costs us $0.96. After the first minute, we pay $.72 per minute. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Ok...in mathspeak, thats:
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28t%29=0.96+%2B+0.72t\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We want \"f%28t%29%3C=6\" so lets do that:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.96%2B0.72t%3C=6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Ok...I think we've done what we're asked.
