You are shipping a box that weighs 5 pounds. Shipping charges are listed by ounces at the local mail center. The first ounce cos ts you $0.35 plus an additional $0.10 for every ounce (or part of an ounce) over the first ounce. What is the cost to ship the package in dollars and cents?
2 answers:
You can use the equation y=.1(x-1)+.35 to solve, where y is the cost in dollars and cents and x is the total number of boxes. Y=.1(5-1)+.35 Y=.1(4)+.35 Y=.4+.35 Y=.75 The cost to ship is $0.75
Remember that 1 lb = 16 oz. Thus, 5 lb = 80 oz.
The first oz costs $0.35 and the remaining (80-1) oz, or 79 oz, costs ($0.10/oz)(79 oz). This comes to $0.35 + $7.90, or $8.25.
The shipping cost for this package will be $8.25.

Answer:
sin Θ = 11/19
Step-by-step explanation:
19 is the hypotenuse.
The legs are 11 and 4√15.
sin Θ = opp/hyp
For angle Θ, 11 is the opposite leg.
sin Θ = 11/19
Sorry I don't know the rest. I hope this still helped :(
If you mean 3 years or 30 months then 3 years would be more since there's 36 months in 3 years. :)
