Question

In Zedland, couriering a parcel costs (i) 3.25 zeds per kg and (ii) a fixed pick up service charge of 5 zeds. Shyleja sends some books weighing ‘w’ kg Which of the following equation below show the correct relationship between courier charge, ‘C’ and the weight, ‘w’?

b) C = 5 + 3.25 × w

a) C + 5 = 3.25 × w

d) C = 3.25 × 5 × w

c) C × 5 = 3.25 × w

​

Answer 1

Answer:

As it is given , it takes 3.25 zeds for 1kg

so it will be like 1x= 3.25 zeds

So if it weighs w kgs then it will cost w kgs will cost

3.25 × w

it is also given that there is an additional fixed charge of 5 zeds so our equation becomes 1 x=3.25 + 5

So finally if it weighs w kgs then the cost will be

3.25×w +5
