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?

100<s<140
100 less than s less than 140

50≤s<100
50 less than or equal to s less than 100

100<s≤140
100 less than s less than or equal to 140

100≤s<140

The shipping rate of $4 applies to customers who spend between $100 and just under $140. The correct interval that represents this range is:

100 ≤ s < 140

So, the answer is:

100≤s<140 100 less than or equal to s less than 140

r u sure think about what ur saying...

I apologize for any confusion. Let's analyze the question again.

The shipping rate of $4 applies to customers who spend between $100 and under $140. This means:

  • The shipping rate is $4 for amounts starting from $100 up to (but not including) $140.

Therefore, the correct interval that represents this range is:

100 ≤ s < 140

This means that $100 is included (the shipping rate is $4 when spending exactly $100), and $140 is not included (the shipping rate changes when spending reaches $140).

So to clarify, the correct answer is indeed 100 ≤ s < 140. Thank you for your patience!

if ur wrong im pinning the blame on u....

I understand the importance of accuracy, and I appreciate your patience. To confirm:

The shipping rate of $4 applies to customers spending $100 to just under $140.

The correct notation for this would be:

  • 100 ≤ s < 140

  • This means $100 is included in the interval, while $140 is not.

If you have access to the source or any information that contradicts this, please do refer to it. But based on the information provided in the question, the interval for the shipping rate of $4 is indeed 100 ≤ s < 140.

If you have any other questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask!

ur correct, surprisingly... woah, dude, you almost bored me to death for a second, my heart rate peaked then dropped like a ball on the floor...
