Presentation Transcript
Bell Work • A shipping company charges a fixed fee and an amount per kg of weight. • John ships a 5 kg package for $16.50 and Sarah ships a 10 kg package for $26.50. • How much will it cost you to ship a 15kg package using the same company?
A bus company makes $45 in profit if 20 people are on the bus and $130 in profit if 30 people are on the bus. • What it the rule used to calculate the profit? • What does the initial value represent? • How many people need to be on the bus to break even?

[0, 40[ d) it increases e) 40 chairs (set y equal to 0 and solve 0 = 75x – 3000) f) 48 chairs 2. 62 chairs (replace y with 600 and then 1650)

[0, 6 and 2/3] 2. [0, 24 000] • H) it decreases • i) straight line the crosses the y axis at 24000 and the x axis at 6 and 2/3.
