Question

A company that packages cold cuts needs to transport the packaged meat to the supermarket.it will cost $1,200 to rent a truck,and it will cost an additional $100 for every 50 pounds transported.which equation represents the transport cost for every 50 pounds if cold cuts transported? The options are

A) y=1,200-100x
B) y= 1,200+100x
C) y=1,200x +100
D) y=100x-1,200

Answer 1

it to calculate the cost of $100 for every 50lbs, you would use 100x

then you need to add that to the 1200

so the equation would be y = 1200+100x

B is the correct answer
