Sagot :

Let:

x = Independent variable = Number of lines

y = Dependent variable = Total cost

b = Cost of the phone plan

a = Cost of each line

a)

The dependent variable is the total cost ( y )

b)

The independent variable is the number of lines ( x )

c)

The function rule is given by:

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=ax+b \\ y=15x+40 \end{gathered}[/tex]

d)

x = 4

[tex]\begin{gathered} y(4)=15(4)+40 \\ y(4)=100 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The total cost would be $100
