Worldwide Shipping Company charges (4x + 280) dollars for shipping a package that weighs x pounds from Miami to Denver. Friendly Shipping Company charges (3x + 125) dollars to ship the same package. To convert a weight in kilograms to a weight in pounds, you divide the number of kilograms by 0.454. How much does Worldwide Shipping Company charge for a package that weighs 96 kilograms

OpenStudy (mathmale):

First of all, completely ignore the information regarding Friendly Shipping Company. Next, convert 96 kg to pounds. (See the instructions.) Last, evaluate Worldwide Shipping's charge by substituting for x (in (4x+280) ) the converted weight (in pounds).
