The time taken by the cell phone battery to charge 100% is 5 hours.
What is a linear equation?
A linear equation is defined as a equation that has either one or two variables without exponents. A linear equation is an algebraic equation in which each term has an exponent of one and the graphing of the equation results in a straight line.
For the given situation,
The equation is y = 0.21x.
The time taken by the cell phone battery to charge to 100%,
⇒ [tex]100\% = 0.21x[/tex]
⇒ [tex]100\%=1[/tex]
Thus, [tex]1=0.21x[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x=\frac{1}{0.21}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x=4.76[/tex] ≈ [tex]5[/tex]
Hence we can conclude that the time taken by the cell phone battery to charge 100% is 5 hours.
