EXPLAIN THE PROBLEM AND SOLUTION STEP BY STEP FOR UPVOTE 

The piecewise function for the above table can be shown as:
95
110
150
160
220
f(x) = 240
360
10, 001 ≤ x ≤ 15, 000
480
15, 001 ≤ x ≤ 20, 000
720
20, 001 ≤ x ≤ 30, 000
960
30,001 ≤ x ≤ 40,000
1200 40,001 ≤ x ≤ 50,000
1,001 ≤ x ≤ 1,500
1,501 ≤ x ≤ 2,000
2,001 ≤ x ≤ 2,500
2,501 ≤ x ≤ 3,000
3,001 ≤ x ≤ 5,000
5,001 ≤ x ≤ 10, 000
Here, f (x) shows the rate of money (in PHP) that must be paid by a
customer after sending x amount of money.
Now, we need to create a word problem regarding a customer who
wants to send certain
amount of money foe a relative and provide its solution based on the
piecewise function.
Problem: Virat wants to send a sum of 23,000.00 to his cousin Rohit
. What should be the rate of the
money that Rohit recieves?
Solution Here, x = 23,000
From the piecewise function f(x), we can see that for 20, 001 < x
< 30,000 , f (x) = PHP 720
= f (23,000) = PHP 720
Thus, Rohit recieves PHP 720.00 from Virat
