The video tutorial explains how to derive a linear equation to calculate the total monthly cost of a Cingular cellular plan, which includes a flat fee and a per-minute charge. It uses two data points to find the slope and determine the flat fee, then applies the equation to calculate the cost for 1,200 minutes.

What is the cost for using 360 minutes in the cellular plan?

• $20.00

• $80.00

• $60.00

• $38.00

How is the problem represented to find the linear equation?

• Using a pie chart

• Using ordered pairs

• Using a histogram

• Using a bar graph
