Answer:

Shipping Fee = $ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question and the table is as follows :

Given - Julio is ordering books from Best Books for his reading club. The table shows Julio's total cost of the book order, Including the shipping fee for each order. Best Books charges the same shipping fee for every book order.

To find - How much is the shipping fee?

Proof -

We know that,

Total Cost = (Number of books buy)(Cost of 1 book) + Shipping Fee

Let us Assume that,

Cost of 1 book = x

Shipping Fee = y

So,

From the table, we get

21 = 5x + y               ..........(1)

36 = 10x + y              ..........(2)

51 = 15x + y               ..........(3)

66 = 20x + y             ..........(4)

From equation (1), we get

y = 21 - 5x

Put the value of y in equation (2), we get

36 = 10x + 21 - 5x

⇒36 = 5x + 21

⇒5x = 36 - 21

⇒5x = 15

⇒x = \frac{15}{5} = 3

∴ we get

x = 3

Put the value of x , we get

y = 21 - 5(3)

  = 21 - 15

  = 6

⇒y = 6

SO, we get

x = 3

y = 6

Verify the 4 Equations :

21 = 5x + y               ..........(1)

21 = 5(3) + 6

    = 15 + 6

    = 21

⇒21 = 21

Verified

36 = 10x + y              ..........(2)

36 = 10(3) + 6

     = 30 + 6

     = 36

⇒36 = 36

Verified

51 = 15x + y               ..........(3)

51 = 15(3) + 6

    = 45 + 6

    = 51

⇒51 = 51

Verified

66 = 20x + y             ..........(4)

66 = 20(3) + 6

     = 60 + 6

     = 66

⇒66 = 66

Verified

So, we get

Cost of 1 book = x = $ 3

Shipping Fee = y = $ 6

Alla [95]

Answer: The total length in kilometers is 38 km


Step-by-step explanation:


17 + 2 = 19 km is 1/2 of the total length, that is,


19 = (1/2)h


(1/2)h = 19 multiply both sides by 2


h = 2*19
