Question

A tile factory earns money by a flat fee for delivery and a sales price per tile sold. For one customer, the tile factory shipped 10,000 units to a retail store at a rate of $0.25 per tile. The total the tile factory earned from that sale was $3,000. Which of the following equations describes the revenue of the tile factory for this sale in terms of tiles sold? . A.. y = 0.25x + 10,000. B.. y = 0.25x + 3,000. C.. y = 0.25x + 500. D.. y = 0.25x + 0.25

Answer 1

The answer is C..y=0.25x+500

Answer 2

correct option is:

C. y=0.25x+500

Explanation:

The tile factory shipped 10,000 units to a retail store at a rate of $0.25 per tile.

The total the tile factory earned from that sale was $3,000.

⇒10000×0.25+flat fee=3000

⇒ flat fee=$500

Let y be the revenue earned and let x be the tiles sold.

Then, y=0.25x+500

Hence, correct option is:

C. y=0.25x+500
