Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A step function consisting of four line segments is plotted in quadrant 1 of a coordinate plane.
The cost for shipping by the Boston Mailing Company is based on the amount that a customer spends. For customers spending under $50, the shipping rate is $10; for $50 to under $100, the shipping rate is $7; for $100 to under $140, the shipping rate is $4; for $140 and over the shipping rate is $2. What domain interval will have a shipping rate of $4?

To determine the correct domain interval for a shipping rate of $4, we need to look at the provided shipping rates based on spending:
- For spending under $50: shipping rate is $10
- For spending from $50 to under $100: shipping rate is $7
- For spending from $100 to under $140: shipping rate is $4
- For spending $140 and over: shipping rate is $2
The shipping rate of $4 applies to spending from $100 to under $140. This can be expressed in interval notation as:
\[ 100 \leq s < 140 \]
Therefore, the correct response is:
**100≤s<140** (100 less than or equal to s less than 140)
- For spending under $50: shipping rate is $10
- For spending from $50 to under $100: shipping rate is $7
- For spending from $100 to under $140: shipping rate is $4
- For spending $140 and over: shipping rate is $2
The shipping rate of $4 applies to spending from $100 to under $140. This can be expressed in interval notation as:
\[ 100 \leq s < 140 \]
Therefore, the correct response is:
**100≤s<140** (100 less than or equal to s less than 140)
