Question

HELP NOW PLEASE!?!?!? 25 POINTS!?

Shauna makes 24 cupcakes per hour. She has already made 48 cupcakes. Let x represent the amount of time Shauna spends making the remaining cupcakes, and let y represent the total number of cupcakes she makes.

Complete the function equation that relates the total number of cupcakes made to the time spent making the remaining cupcakes.

y =
x +

Answer 1

If y is the amount of cupcakes, and x is the time that it takes to prepare them, we can write the equation that relates this two variables:

y = 24x + 48

We use 24 as a value to multplicate x because Shauna make 24 cupcakes in one hour and already have 48 cupcakes.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

y = 24x + 48

24 cupcakes per hour

already made 48 cupcakes
