Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

purple leopard hat = h

cost

      leopard hat $4.5  < 20 hats

      leopard hat $3.7  > 20 hats

Functions

       f(h) = 4.5 h               if h < 20 hats

       f (h) = 3.75 h            if h > 20 hats

f(n) = 4.50n  for n<20

f(n) = 3.75n for n≥20

Let n represent the number of hats bought

When you buy less than 20 hats. That is for n<20, each that sells for $4.50

Total cost of order for n < 20

f(n) = 4.50n

When you buy 20 hats and above. That is for n≥20, each that sells for $3.75.

Total cost of order for n≥20

f(n) = 3.75n
