You want to ship a 7-pound box. Use the equation y = .72x + 5 to predict the amount of money it will cost to ship it if it costs $0.72 per pound plus a standard rate of $5 per shipment.

ok, so you know that the shipping equation is y = 0.72x + 5, "x" being the amount of pounds being shipped, and the "+5" is the flat rate shipping charge you want to ship a package of 7lbs so just set x = 7
