The weight of the package is an illustration of a linear function

The total weight of the package is p = 8200 - T

How to determine the total weight of the package?

The given parameter is:

Weight of empty truck = 8200 lb

Represent the total weight of the truck with T, and the weight of the package with p.

So, we have:

T = 8200 + p

Make p the subject

p = 8200 - T

Hence, the total weight of the package is p = 8200 - T
