Answer:
A. c(r)=$19.5 if r < 2
c(r)=$19.5+(r-2) ($9) (1.045) if r ≥ 2
B. $29.78
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Based on the information given if we are to express the cost of the resumes which is c(r) algebraically as a piecewise function what we would have will be:
c(r)=$19.5 when r represent an INTERGER and is less than 2
c(r)=$19.5+(r-2) ($9) (1+0.045)
c(r)=$19.5+(r-2) ($9) (1.045) when r represent an INTERGER and is greater than 2
Therefore to express the cost of the resumes c(r) algebraically as a piecewise function will be: c(r)=$19.5 if r < 2
c(r)=$19.5+(r-2) ($9) (1.045) if r ≥ 2
B. Calculation for How much will 300 copies cost, including a sales tax of 4 1/2%
Cost of 300 copies=($19.5+$9)+($19.5+$9) (0.045)
Cost of 300 copies=$28.5+$28.5(0.045)
Cost of 300 copies=$28.50+$1.28
Cost of 300 copies=$29.78
Therefore How much will 300 copies cost, including a sales tax of 4 1/2% will be $29.78
