A trip to Six Flags costs $32 to get in and $2 for every food item you purchase. Write an equation represents the total amount of money spent, C(x), as a function of the number of food items purchased, x, in a day.

y being the total cost
x being the cost of food

y=2x+32
this is becasue for every item of food you buy is $2, so this would be your growth, or slope, the 32 represents the original ammount of money it osted for you to get it, or the y-intercept

hope this heped

c(x) = 32+(2*x) which is the total amount of money spent
