F(x) as a piecewise function would be:
f(x) = ($3/lb)x, for 0≤x≤10,
= ($1.50/lb)x, for (10,20], and
= ($0.50/lb)x, for (20,40]
To the above must be added $7.50, [0,10] or $12, (10,40]
3g+5=20
-5. -5
3g=15
Divide both numbers by three
g=5
so, start floor = x
x + 7 - 9 - 4 + 8 - 2 = 14
x = 14
the elevator started on the 14th floor.
to verify: 14 + 7 = 21 - 9 = 12 - 4 = 8 + 8 = 16 - 2 = 14
