a.
Answer to Problem 36PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given information: M pays a monthly fee for her cable package which includes
one TV movie a month.M gets billed an additional charge for every additional movie.During her first month,M watched 5 additional movies and her bill was $135.50.During her second month.M watched 9 additional movies and her bill was $157.50.
Formula used:
The equation of a line in
Slop m is calculated by
Calculation:
If 5 Additional movies costs $157.50,then the function passes through the point(5,135.5).If 9 Additional movies costs $157.50,then the function passes through the point(9,155.50).So equation of the function passes through points (5,135.50) and (9,157.50) is,
b.
Find the inverse function.

Explanation of Solution
Given information:M pays a monthly fee for her cable package which includes
one TV movie a month .M gets billed an additional charge for every additional movie .During her first month ,M watched 5 additional movies and her bill was $135.50.During her second month .M watched 9 additional movies and her bill was $157.50.
Formula used:
The equation of a line in point-slope form is
Slop m is calculated by
Calculation:
If 5 Additional movies costs $157.50,then the function passes through the point (5,135.5).If 9 Additional movies costs $157.50,then the function passes through the point (9,155.50).So equation of the function passes through points (5,135.50) and (9,157.50) is,
