Please help me I will give a medal ... & fan.. A truck weighs 4500 kg. The truck is packed with bales of wool, each weighing 150 kg. Part A: Write a function to show the total weight of the truck f(w) when it is loaded with n bales of wool. (4 points) Part B: What is the total weight of the truck when it is packed with 15 bales of wool? (4 points) Part C: If a carton weighing 20 kg is also loaded on the same truck, what would be the weight of the truck when it is loaded with 10 bales of wool? (2 points)

I just need help with B..

OpenStudy (aripotta):

what did you get for a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(w)=150w+4500

OpenStudy (aripotta):

ok so part b says there's 15 bales of wool. so just plug in 15 for w 150(15) + 4500

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would be 6750?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or would i leave it like that?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

6750 kg is how much the truck would weigh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok thank-you (:

OpenStudy (aripotta):

do you need help for c or do you have it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldn't I have to do the same thing for c? :o

OpenStudy (aripotta):

pretty much. you would just plug in 10 for w and add 20kg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait lol... would i use the same equation? with 4500 and add 20 or should i just add 20?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

150(10) + 4500 + 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok I got it .. I have some other questions that I've already done .. can you check them for me?

OpenStudy (aripotta):
