Please help me

You have $1 and earn $0.25 for each cup of orange juice you sell. Write an equation in two variables that represent the total amount A (in dollars) you have after selling j cups of orange juice. ASAP I need it to turn in today

Answer 1

A = 0.25*j + 1

Explanation:

The question presented here is an application of linear models. The $1 amount is fixed and does not depend on any factor such as the cups of orange juice sold.

Furthermore, we are informed that we earn $0.25 for every cup of orange juice sold. This means that we shall earn 0.25 j by selling j cups of orange juice.

The variable total amount, A will thus depend on the fixed amount of $1 and the variable income 0.25 j.

The equation in two variables that will represent the total amount A (in dollars) you have after selling j cups of orange juice will thus be;

A = 0.25*j + 1
