represents the cost to mail a package if x is the number of ounces over 4 pounds?
f( x) = 32 + 0.25 x
f( x) = 0.25( x + 4)
f( x) = 0.25+ 8 x

Answer:

f(x) = 8 + 0.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum cost is $8, for up to 4 pounds.

The added cost is ($0.25/oz)(x), where x is trhe ounces over 4 pounds

The total cost is the sum of these two:

f(x) = 8 + 0.25x

City A's population of 1115000 is decreasing at a rate of 15000 per year. City B's population of 698000 is increasing at a rate
vredina [299]

Answer:

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x  be number of years the populations be equal

City A's population of 1115000 is decreasing at a rate of 15000 per year.

The population is decreasing at a constant rate so we use equation

y= mx + b

where m is the slope(rate), b is the initial population

m= -15000 (decreasing) , b= 1115000

y= -15000 x + 1115000

City B's population of 698000 is increasing at a rate of 45000 per year.

m= 45000 (increasing) , b= 698000

y= 45000 x + 698000

Now we set the equations equal and solve for x

45000 x + 698000 = -15000 x + 1115000

Add 15000 on both sides

60000 x + 698000 = 1115000

Subtract 689000 on both sides

60000 x = 417000

Divide by 60000 on both sides

x= 6.95

So after 7 years the population will be equal.
