Question

NO LINKS HELP During a sale, a store owner offers a discount depending on how much money a customer spends. The function p(x) represents the total amount owed by a customer during the sale when purchasing items totaling a value of x dollars.

How much does a customer owe for items with a total value of $140, in dollars and cents?

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

$125

Explanation:

For x = 140, the function definition for x ≥ 100 is used.

p(140) = 95 +0.75(140 -100) = 95 +30 = 125

The customer will owe $125 for items with a value of $140.
