a jeweler sells rings for $35 each plus a flat fee of $5 for shipping for orders up to 10 rings. If customers order more than 10 rings, the cost is $30 per ring and shipping is free. Write a piecewise function to represent the situation.

Answer:

-10=$35r+$5r

+10=$30r

Explanation:

This function represents this situation. If someone orders less than ten rings (-10) then they will pay $35 for each ring($35r) plus dollars for each for shipping ($5r)

If someone were to buy more than ten rings (+10) then they will pay $30 for each ring ($30r)

Have a great day!
