The cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $9.70. Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.46 per pound. Write

a linear model that represents the cost, C, for the total weight, w, in pounds of the package. Assume 5 lbs.
a.
C = 9.7w + 0.46
c.
C = 0.46w + 9.7
b.
C = 0.46w + 12
d.
C = 0.46(w - 5) + 9.7

Answer is D

<u>Answer:</u>

Option(d)

C = 0.46(w - 5) + 9.7

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given that the delivery cost of any package has a fixed value of 9.7$ and an additional value for every 5 lbs extra weight and the additional value is given to be 0.46.

The equation for total cost C for given total weight w can be written by

sum of fixed value and every 5 extra lbs

which can be represented by the equation

C= 0.46(w-5) + 97.

Hence,  this represents a linear model for the given data.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Types of problems that require solving a system of linear equations are:

Calculation of mileage rate

Calculations of ages of children born to a family

Calculation of income over a range of period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of linear equations have many real life applications. Many real life problems can be used to set up a system of linear equations.

The following are the steps:

Understand the problem

Break the problem down into parts and represent each part with unknown variables such as: X1, X2, X3,...

Combine the unknown variables mathematically, from the statements of the problem(That is, 2X1 + X2 - 6X3, X1 + 2X2 + 4X3,....)

The results of the solved linear equation system (after solving) will give the solution to the problem. The solutions to the real life problems can be learned by the nature, analysis, and relationship of the solutions of the system of the formed linear equation
