A logistics manager uses a cost function $C(w)$ to calculate shipping expenses based on the weight of a package, $w$. When calculating the cost for a shipment where the weight has increased by 50 lbs, represented as $C(w + 50)$, which of the following correctly identifies the Non-Distributive Property of Function Evaluation?

A manufacturing technician uses a specific cost function, $C(x)$, to calculate the daily production cost based on producing $x$ items. True or False: According to the rules of function evaluation, the technician can assume that the cost of producing $x + 50$ items, written as $C(x + 50)$, is always equal to $C(x) + C(50)$.

In human resources, employee benefits are often calculated using functions based on specific variables. Suppose $A(k)$ is a function that calculates the annual allowance for an employee with $k$ dependents. Match each mathematical expression with the correct description of the allowance calculation.
