What is the piecewise-defined function that expresses the cost of the order, C(x), in terms of the number of photos ordered, x?
1 answer:
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
The values in the table change by $3.80 from one line to the next. Since each change from line to line changes in number of photos by 20, the average cost per photo is $3.80/20 = $0.19. There is apparently a $5.80 -3.80 = $2.00 shipping charge for numbers of photos in the range shown in the table.
Thus, the piecewise function has 3 pieces:
for x < 100: $2.00 + 0.19x
for x < 200: $4.50 + 0.17x
for x ≥ 200: $0.15x
This could be written as ...

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Consider m is the degree of the numerator (top) and n is the degree of the denominator (bottom). Then the horizontal asymptote (H.A.) is based on the relationship between m and n:
- If m > n, then there is no H.A.
- If m = n, then y = coefficient of numerator ÷ coefficient of denominator
- If m < n, then y = 0
In the given problem, m = 1 and n = 1 so the H.A. is:
