Question Description

Monthly service charge: $8.80 
Per therm service charge 1st 25 therms: $0.6686/therm 
Over 25 therms: $0.85870/therm 

therefore for the first 25 therms in a month, 
8.80 + 0.6686(25) = ? 

and for 45 therms in a month, 
8.80 + 0.6686(25) + 0.85870(45-25) = ? 

For x therms in a month, 
Between zero and 25: 
f(x) = 8.80 + 0.6686x for 0 ≤ x ≤ 25 

Greater than 25: 
f(x) = 8.80 + 0.6686(25) + 0.85870(x-25) for x > 25 
Just simplify this function.

One formula for computing the equivalent temperature is 𝑡 W(t) = {33 − (10.45+10√𝑣−𝑣)(33−𝑡) 2204 33 − 1.5958(33 − 𝑡) if 0 ≤ v < 1.79 if 1.79 ≤ v < 20 if v ≥ 20 where v represents the wind speed (in meters per second) and t represents the air temperature . Compute the wind chill for an air temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 12 meters per second. (Round the answer to one decimal place.)
