       2.Multiply the sum by 3

       3.Substract x+y from the product

A) 5x + 14y B) 5x + 16y
C) 5x + 5y D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5x + 14y

Explanation:

Step 1 :2x + 5y

Step 2 :3(2x + 5y) = 6x + 15y

Step 3 :(6x + 15y) - (x +y) = 6x + 15y - x - y (watch that last minus sign!)

This gives 5x + 14y

Q:

Courier charges for packages to a certain destination are 65 cents for the first 250 grams and 10 cents for each additional 100 grams or part thereof. What could be the weight in grams of a package for which the charge is $1.55 ?

A) 1155 B) 1145
C) 1040 D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1145

Explanation:

The weight will be 250g plus (1.55 - 0.65)/0.10 units of 100g

250 + 900 = 1150

This is the maximum weight that can be sent at that price. But, weights exceeding

250 + 800 will also get charged this amount (that is what the ‘part thereof’ implies).

Hence a package weighing 1145 will be charged $1145
