Answer:
Part A:
c = .86*p
c =1.72 for 2 lbs
Part B:
c =.81p
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
Total cost = cost per pound * number of pounds
c = .86*p
Let p = 2
c = .86*2
c =1.72
Part B:
Total cost = cost per pound * number of pounds
c = .(.86-.05)*p
c =.81p
In order to answer this question, we must break this mathematical expression up into a series of mathematical operations (exponent, multiplication,division, addition, and/or subtraction):
"4 times a number" - The word "times" implies that we have to multiply 4 by an unknown number. We can simply label this unknown number as x.
"cubed" - In order to "cube" a number, we must raise it to the third power, or have an exponent of 3. Our unknown number of x now becomes x3 because we raised it to the third power.
"decreased by 7" - The word "decreased" implies that we must subtract 7 from the product of 4 multiplied by x3
With all of the information we now have, we can form an algebraic expression for this problem.
"4 times a number cubed decreased by 3" now becomes:
4x3 - 7
The answers are It is a quadrilateral and Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

<em><u>Question:</u></em>
Find the perimeter of the quadrilateral. if x = 2 the perimeter is ___ inched.
The complete figure of this question is attached below
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
<h3>The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 129 inches</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
The complete figure of this question is attached below
Given that, a quadrilateral with,
Side lengths are:

The values of the side lengths when x = 2 are

Perimeter of a quadrilateral = Sum of its sides
Perimeter of given quadrilateral = 32 + 22 + 44 + 31 = 129 inches
Thus perimeter of the quadrilateral is 129 inches
