To package and ship an item, it costs $5 for shipping supplies and $0.75 for each pound a package weighs. what is the cost of shipping a 12-pound package?

$14

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that it is a 12lb package, so lets set up the equation.

$0.75p + $5 = ?        (p stands for pounds)

So, lets insert 12 for p, and solve for the equation.

$0.75(12) + $5 = ?

$9 + $5 = $14

The cost of shipping a 12lb. package would be $14.
