The cost to mail a 2-lb package is $7.
The cost to mail a 2-lb, 1 oz package is $7+$0.30(1).
That to mail a 2-lb, 2 oz package is $7+$0.30(2) = $7.60.
Following this pattern, the general formula is f(x) = $7 + $0.30x, where x represents the number of ounces OVER 2 lb.
Part A: Let the September price be x, then
1.2x = 1.5
x = 1.5/1.2 = 1.25
Therefore, September price is $1.25
Part B: In September, they earned 0.4 * 1.25 * 900 = $450
In October, they earned 0.4 * 1.5 * 700 = $420
Therefore, they earned more money in September.
Answer:
143
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute n=3 into the problem
6(
)-2(
) +3-4
Then figure out squared and power by 3
6(27)-2(9)+3-4
Next multiply
162-18+3-4
Finally, add and subtract
144+3=147
147-4=143
1. Make an equation.
Moving company #1: y = 17x + 840
Moving company #2: y = 22x + 760
2. Put the equations together and solve
17x + 840 = 22x + 760
-17x -17x
840 = 5x + 760
-760 -760
80 = 5x
5 5
16 = x
