Complete question :

An online clothing company sells custom sweatshirts. The company charges ​$4.99 for shipping plus ​$7.50 for each sweatshirt. Write a linear function rule that models the total cost y​ (in dollars) for any number of sweatshirts x.

Answer:

y = 7.50x + 4.99

Explanation:

Given that :

Shipping fee = 4.99

Cost per shirt = 7.50

Writing the relation in the form of a linear equation :

General form of a linear function :

y = mx + c

Where m = slope ; c = intercept

The total cost of ordering x sweatshirts :

y = (cost per sweatshirt * number ordered) + shipping fee

y = 7.50x + 4.99
