Question

Ferdinand Freight Company charges a flat rate of $200 plus $0.75 per pound to transport freight in

the metro area. This cost is represented by the function below where w is the weight of the freight
in pounds and c(w) is the cost given the weight of the freight
c(w) = 200+ 0.750

Answer 1

$1325

Explanation:

c(w) = 200 + 0.75w

c(1500) = 200 + 0.75(1500)

c(1500) = 200 + 1125

c(1500) = 1325
