Question

The price of cherries at a farm is $1.38 per pound. Which equation can be used to determine c, the total price of n pounds of cherries? c = 1.38 over n c = 1.38 + n c = 1.38 − n c = 1.38n

Answer 1

C= 1.38n        to get the answer you must multiply

Answer 2

`c = 1.38n`

Explanation:

Given,

The price of cherries is $1.38 per pound,

That is, the price of 1 pounds of cherry = $ 1.38,

So, the price of n pounds of cherry = price of each pounds of cherry × number of pounds

= 1.38n dollars,

if c represents the price of n pounds of cherry ( in dollars ),

Then,

`c=1.38n`

Which is the required equation.
