Answer

$a)\$ 39.99 \\ b) \$ 46.74\\ c) \$ 40.44$

Work Step by Step

We are given: $$C(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} 39.99 & 0\leq x\leq 450 \\ 0.45x-162.51 & x \gt 450 \end{array}\right.$$ We substitute the given $x$ values into the equation: $a) C(200)=39.99 \\ b) C(465)=0.45(465)-162.51=46.74\\ c) C(451)=0.45(451)-162.51=40.44$
