Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of stuffed animals. (6 points) Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship the stuffed animals by $0.05 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of stuffed animals with the reduced cost. (4 points)

Respuesta :

Part A :

Rate of shipping per pound of stuffed animal = $0.75

Therefore total cost for P pounds = C = 0.75 P

Cost of shipping 2 pounds of stuffed animals = 0.75*2 = $1.50

Part B :

If the cost is reduced by $0.05 per pound then the reduced cost per pound = 0.75 - 0.05 = $0.70

Therefore total reduced cost for P pounds = C = 0.70 P
