Q.: Arrive-and-Go airline wants to clarify its baggage handling policy, whilst maximizing revenues, and will introduce the following tariffs for all baggage per individual customer (weights are rounded up to the nearest 0.1Kg):

The first 2Kg will be carried free of charge.

The next 10 Kg will be carried for a flat charge of $10.

An additional 15Kg will be charged a total charge of $17.

Luggage over this amount will be charged at $5 per Kg, up to a maximum of 150Kg per person.

No passenger may take more that 150Kg with them.
