Okay, the first one is pretty simple. The equation should be f(w)= 4500 + 150n 4500 is the weight of the truck and 150n is the weight of each bale of wool.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

why n?

OpenStudy (seratul):

It says "when it is loaded with n bales of wool" in the question. So you should use n.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

oh yes i see sorry!

OpenStudy (seratul):

It's all good.

OpenStudy (seratul):

Now for the second question, just plug in 15 for n in the equation. Tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

wait isnt it 6750?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

bruh this is simple stuff

OpenStudy (seratul):

Yep. Also remember your units. kg

OpenStudy (seratul):

Try number 3 by yourself :D. Tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (seratul):

Need help with number 3?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

6200 kg

OpenStudy (seratul):

Remember, you have to add 20 kg as well.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

i did

OpenStudy (seratul):

I think you added 200, not 20.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

f(w)=150+20(10)+4,500 f(w)=170(10)+4500 f(w)=1700+4500 6200 kg =1700+4500

OpenStudy (itrymath):

@Seratul

OpenStudy (itrymath):

omg is it what i think it is

OpenStudy (seratul):

f(w)=150(10)+20+4,500 f(w)=1500+20+4,500 f(w)=1520+4,500 f(w)=6020 You placed the 10 at the wrong spot.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

holy molly i think imade mistake, yup i knew it

OpenStudy (itrymath):

okay i got it mind helping with another ?

OpenStudy (seratul):
