Step-by-step explanation:

A shipping company charges $6 to ship a package that weighs up to 1 pound and $2 for each additional pound or portion of a pound.

lets make an assumption that the total weight of the shipment is x pound and cost for shipping is y.

the shipping company charges $6 for the first pound.

Up to now the charge is y=6

After 1 pound, i.e for the remaining (x-1) pounds, they charge $2 per pound.

So, the total charge will be, y=6+2(x-1)

weight is always starting from zero as there is no negative weight.so X>0

so the equation is 6(2x-1), where X is more than 0

Bess [88]

Answer:

X = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 4x = 6x - 8x + 8

-6.                      -6

-4x = -2x + 2

+2x.   +2x

-2x = 2

divide both sides by -2

x = -1

A fruit stand has to decide what to charge for their produce. They need \$10$10dollar sign, 10 for 4 apples and 4 oranges. They
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

The prices are inconsistent, so there is no unique price that can be set for either an apple or an orange that will give the total prices indicated.

__

The first relation can be written as ...

  $10 = 4A +4O

  $10 = 4(A +O) . . . . factor out 4

  $2.50 = A +O . . . . divide by 4

The second relation can be written as ...

  $12 = 6A +6O

  $12 = 6(A +O) . . . . factor out 6

  $2 = A +O . . . . . . . divide by 6

These two relations give different prices for 1 apple and 1 orange. There is no price that can be set for either fruit that will give this result.

No unique prices can be assigned.
