Answer:

80 centimeters taller

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert Alex's height from meters to centimeters by multiplying by 100 because there are 100 centimeters in one meter to get 160 centimeters. Now multiply 160 centimeters by 1.5 to get Noah's height, 240 centimeters. Finally, since we need to find their difference in height, subtract Alex's height of 160 centimeters from Noah's height of 240 to get 80 centimeters.

An internet service provider is implementing a new program based on the number of connected devices in each household. Currently

erica [24]

The current rate is simply equal to $175 per month, let us call this as rate A:

A = 175

The new rate is $94 plus $4.50 per devices, let us call this as rate B:

B = 94 + 4.50 x

where x is the number of devices connected to the network

The inequality equation for us to find x which the new plan is less than current plan is:

94 + 4.50 x < 175

Solving for x:

4.50 x < 81

x < 18

So the number of devices must be less than 18.

- From the graph, we can actually see that the new rate intersects the current rate at number of devices equal to 18. So it should really be below 18 devices.
