The equation is 6(2x-1), where X is more than 0. When a shipping company charges $6 to ship a package that weighs up to 1 pound.
In algebra, an equation can be defined as a mathematical statement consisting of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions that have the same value.
A shipping company charges $6 to ship a package that weighs up to 1 pound and $2 for each additional pound or portion of a pound.
lets make an assumption that the total weight of the shipment is x pound and cost for shipping is y.
the shipping company charges $6 for the first pound.
Up to now, the charge is y=6
After 1 pound, i.e for the remaining (x-1) pounds, they charge $2 per pound.
So, the total charge will be, y=6+2(x-1)
weight is always starting from zero as there is no negative weight.so X>0
so the equation is 6(2x-1), where X is more than 0
