An online clothing company sells custom sweatshirts. The company charges $6.50 for each sweatshirt and a
flat fee of $3.99 for shipping.
a. Write a linear function in the form y=mx + b that
represents the total cost, y, in dollars, for a single order
of x sweatshirts.
b. Describe how the linear function would change if the
shipping charge applied to each sweatshirt.

you are playing an adventure game on your computer. you come across a troll who won't let you pass and there is no other way to get to the other side of the river except over the bridge he is guarding.

the troll is a nerd. he takes great delight in watching people struggle with his problems. very few get them. he only gives you one chance and then he changes the puzzle. you have to solve this one.

before you are four blocks. they are numbered 11,6, -7,21.

he tells that the answer he wants is minus and between -1 and - 2. you can use +, -, ×, ÷   ( and ) as many times as you like or no times at all. you don't like the way he's looking at you, but you need to cross the bridge. what do you do?

first the equation needs to be simplified. so the equation would now look like:   52-24+11

then you multiply.

and when you multiply, you will get the answer of 39.
