Since each stapler costs 16.99, the total cost is 16.99*x, with x representing the number of staplers bought. This works due to that he adds 16.99 for every stapler, and multiplying it adds 16.99 each time he buys a new stapler

Answer:


f(x)=16.99x

Explanation:

It is described in the problem that he will be paying 16.99 per stapler, this can be understood as a linear relationship where both the total amount to pay and the amount of stapler will grow at the same rate (the price of the stapler times the staplers) like this:


f(x)=16.99x

where
x is the amount of staplers
