Sally's Stuffed Animal Company charges $0.75 per pound to ship stuffed animals. Part A: Write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of stuffed animals. Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of stuffed animals. (6 points)
Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship the stuffed animals by $0.05 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of stuffed animals with the reduced cost. (4 points)

A. c = 0.75(p)

B. c = 0.70(p)

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

isocolese triangle

we know that the line connect a and b is the hyptonuse

so first find the hypotonuse length using the distance formula, call the length c

since it is an isocolese triangle, the lengths of the legs are the same

using pythagorean theorem,

in this case, a=b since isocolese triangle so we get

or

we can find c so we can find the distances

we know that if we draw 2 circles, each has center at a and b, and find where they intersect, we can the 2 possible locations for c

if a has center at (xa,ya) and b has center at (xb,yb), then we can solve where

and

intersect to find where they intersect

i'm not going to put an example because i have to go to class. i hope this explanation is enough
