Respuesta :

Answer:

equation will be 2x+5

Explanation:

We have given the cost of shipping box = $5

Flat packing fee = $5

As given, the cost of shipping a box is based on its weight in pounds so it is variable

And a flat rate of $5 for packing. This means $5 is common for each parcel that will be sent. Only the weight will vary.

So the equation will be 2x+5
