To solve the problem, we will define a function that given the weight of the package, will determine the cost of the mailing. Let x be the weigth of the package in oz and let f(x) be the cost of mailing the package. We are told that if the weight is less than 4, then the rate is 1.50. So, in math notation that would be f(x) = 1.50 if x<4. Now, we are told that if the package weights between 4 and less than 8, then the rate is 2.50. So, that is f(x) = 2.50 if 4<=x<8. Finally, we are told that if the package weights between 8 and 12, the cost is 3.50. So f(x) = 3.50 if 8<=x<=12. So the final math expression for f(x) is
1.50 if x<4
f(x) = 2.50 if 4<=x<8
3.50 if 8<=x<=12.
in the diagram the figures are simular, what is x?triangle with 30cm and 13cmtriangle with 24cm and x
If the figures are similar, the proportion between the corresponding sides is the same.
The side of 30 cm corresponds to the side of 24 cm, and the side of 13 cm corresponds to the side of x cm.
So if the proportion is the same, we have that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{30}{24}=\frac{13}{x} \\ 30\cdot x=24\cdot13 \\ x=\frac{24\cdot13}{30}=\frac{4\cdot13}{5}=\frac{52}{5}=10.4 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the value of x is 10.4 cm, therefore the answer is b.

8,11,14,16,17,21,21,24,27,31,43,47.
Required:
To find the interquartile range of the given data.
Explanation:
We have given the heights of 12 trees in feet.
Therefore, the total number of quantitties (elements) in given data is even.
Thus, the median (M) of the data is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} M=\frac{21+21}{2} \\ \Rightarrow M=\frac{42}{2} \\ \Rightarrow M=21 \end{gathered}[/tex]The median (Q) of the first half of the data 8,11,14,16,17 is given by,

The median (Q') of the second half of the data 24,27,31,43,47 is given by,
[tex]Q^{\prime}=31[/tex]since the number of quantities are odd.
Hence, the interqurtile range (R) is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} R=Q^{\prime}-Q \\ \Rightarrow R=31-14 \\ \Rightarrow R=17 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer:
The interquartile range is,
[tex]R=17[/tex]The first option is spread.

Problem:
Math Club members want to advertise their fundraiser each week in the school paper. They know that a front-page ad is more effective than an ad inside the paper. They have a $30 advertising budget. It cost $2 for each front-page ad and $1 for each inside page ad. The club wants to advertise at least 20 times.
a) Write and graph a system of inequalities to model the number of advertisements the club can purchase to stay under budget. Be sure to label all parts of your graph.
Solution:
Let us denote the number of front-page ads by x, and the number of inside ads by y:
x = number front-page ads
y= number of inside ads
Now, because they have a $30 advertising budget and It cost $2 for each front-page ad and $1 for each inside page ad, the first inequality that we have is:
[tex]2x+\text{ y }\leq30[/tex]If we represent the graph of the equality (line) 2x+y = 30, we have:
On the other hand, because the club wants to advertise at least 20 times, the second inequality that we have is:
[tex]x+y\ge20[/tex]If we represent the graph of the equality (line) x+y = 20, we have:
Now, the intersection point of the above lines, that is 2x+y = 30 and x+y = 20 is found as follows:
we have
y = 30 - 2x
and
y = 20-x
then
30-2x = 20-x
and
30-20 = 2x-x
that is
10 = x
when x = 10 then y = 20-x = 20-10 = 10
the variables x and y are related proportionaly. when x=4,y=10 find y when x =18when x=18,y=_____
For variables to be related proportionally, the relationship must have a constant of proportionality. In our case we will represent the constant of proportionality as k. Therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=kx \\ \text{where} \\ k=\text{constant of proportionality} \\ 10=4k \\ k=\frac{10}{4} \\ k=\frac{5}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now lets find y when x = 18

Pyramid with the square base. Is this correct? Base=64in^2LA= 112in^2TA=176in^2
The given figures is of square pryamid with the square base
Area of square = side x side
In the given figure, the length of the base of the square = 8in
Area of base of square = 8 x 8
Area of base of square = 64 in²
The lateral area of a right pyramid can be calculated by
multiplying half of the perimeter of the base by the slant
height.
Lateral surface area = 1/2 x Perimeter of the base x slant height
Since, the base of the pryamid is square so, the perimeter for the base pf pryamid = 4side
Perimeter = 4 x side
Perimeter = 4 x 8
Perimeter of the base of pryamid is 32 in
Slant height is given as 7in
Lateral surface area = 1/2 x 7 x 32
LAteral surface area = 7 x 16
Lateral surface area = 112 in²
The total surface area can be calculated by adding base are to the lateral surface area
Total surface area = Lateral surface area + Base area
Total surface area = 112 + 64
Total surface area = 176 in²
Answer:
Area of base of square = 64 in²

For Green land shark: y= 37+ 0.75x
For Spiny Dogfish: y= 22 + 1.5x
When both equation are equal
37+ 0. 75x = 22 + 1.5x

Kayla wants to have new doors installed.
The door company charges $125 as a one time fee.
They also charge $50 per window installed.
If the number of new windows installed is w, then it means that to install w new windows, they will charge an additional:
w * 50 = $50w
This will be in addition to the one time fee.
Let T be the total cost of installation.
Therefore, the total cost for installing w new windows (in dollars) is:

A. Find the zeros in state the multiplicity of each zeroB. Write an equation expressed as the product of factors, of a polynomial function for the graph Using A leading coefficient of 1 or -1 and make the degree of F a small as possible.C. Use both the equation in part B and graph to find the Y intercept
Given the graph of a polynomial function:
We will find the following:
A. Find the zeros and state the multiplicity of each zero
The zeros of the function are the points of the intercept between the x-axis and the graph of the function
as shown, there are 3 points of intersection (3 zeros)
x = -1, multiplicity = 3
x = 1, multiplicity = 2
x = 2, multiplicity = 1
B. Write an equation expressed as the product of factors, of a polynomial function for the graph Using A leading coefficient of 1 or -1 and make the degree of F as small as possible.
Form A, the factors of the function will be:
(x+1), (x-1), and (x-2)
The equation of the function will be:
[tex]f(x)=(x+1)^3(x-1)^2(x-2)[/tex]C. Use both the equation in part B and graph to find the Y-intercept
The y-intercept is the value of (y) when (x = 0)

JCPenney sells jeans for $49.50 that cost $38.00. What is the percent markup on cost? Check the cost.
The percent markup of the jeans is 30.2%
How to calculate the markup on cost ?
The selling price of the jeans is $49.50
The cost price is $38
Markup can be described as the difference between the selling price and the cost price of a product
The markup can be calculated by subtracting the cost price from the selling price
= 49.50 - 38
= 11.5
The percent markup can be calculated as follows
11.5/38 × 100
= 0.302 × 100
= 30.2%

Let W represents people wearing clothes that have white
We have the Venn diagram as follow
So from the Venn diagram small letter w represent those wearing clothes that have only white. So we have that
[tex]\begin{gathered} 30+16+w=50 \\ 46+w=50 \\ w=50-46 \\ w=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]So those for "only" white is 4.
