Answer:

The required equation is C=10.80+0.41w.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $10.80. Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.41 per pound.

Fixed cost is $10.80.

Variable cost is $0.41w, where w is the total weight in pounds of a package weighing over 5 lbs.

Total cost is the addition of fixed cost and variable cost.

\text{Total cost}=\text{Fixed cost}+\text{Variable cost}

C=10.80+0.41w

Where, C is expresses the cost C in terms of w, the total weight in pounds of a package weighing over 5 lbs.

Therefore the required equation is C=10.80+0.41w.

Answer:

first of all the formula

y = mx+c

where m is slope and c is y-intercept.

now substitute the values-

y = 2x - 5

(for the slope here is 2 and the part where the line intercepts y axis is -5

therefore

y = 2x-5

A new phone costs $230 and the sales tax rate is 7%. What is the total cost of the camera after tax?
rosijanka [135]

That's a question about percentage.

One way to represent percentage is using decimal number. In this way, 1 is equivalent to 100% and the other less percentages using numbers between 0 and 1.

Examples:

  • 90% is equivalent to 0,90.
  • 5% is equivalent to 0.05. It's not 0.5 because 0.5 is equivalent to 50%.
  • 13.17% is equivalent to 0.1317.
  • 245% is equivalent to 2.45.

If we want to know the percentage of a number, we should multiplacate the number by the porcentage in the decimal number form.

Examples:

  • 55.90% of 200 is equal to: 200 \times 0.5590 = 111.8
  • 360% of 88 is equal to: 88\times 3.6 = 316.8

In our problem, we have a phone with a increase of 7%. To solve that, it's important to perceive that $230 is equal to 100% and with a increase of 7%, we will pay 107%.

107% in the decimal number form is 1.07. With that information, we should multiplicate 1.07 by the original value and we will find the answer.

We know that 230\times 1.07 = 246.1, therefore, the total cost of the phone after tax is $246.1.

I hope I've helped. :D
