TILE Mark is purchasing new tile for his bathrooms. The home improvement store charges $48 for each box of tiles when three or fewer boxes are purchased, $45 for each box when 4 to 8 boxes are purchased, $42 for each box when 9 to 19 boxes are purchased, and $38 for each box when more than nineteen boxes are purchased a. Write a piecewise-defined function describing the cost of the boxes of tile. b. What is the cost of purchasing 5 boxes of tile? What it is the cost of purchasing 19 boxes of tile?

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3 boxes or less = Cost of tiles = $48

4 - 8 boxes ;  cost = $45

9 - 19 boxes ; cost = $42

> 19 boxes ; cost = $38

Cost of purchasing 5 boxes of tiles :

$45 * 5 = $225

Cost of purchasing 19 boxes :

$42 * 19 = $798

solution:

→c= a b , that is product of a and b is possible only when when a is m × n matrix and b is n × p matrix.

that is, number of columns of a= number of rows of b.

so, size of matrix , c= a b is , if a = (m × n)matrix

b= (n × p)matrix

then a b = [ (m × n)matrix] ×[   (n × p)matrix ]

→→c= a b= [m × p ] matrix

→→size of product a b will be equal to = number of rows of a × number of columns of b

sorry not sure
