Question

Seward Elementary School plans to sell friendship bracelets. The bracelets can be purchased from three

companies.
Company C charges $27 for 15 bracelets, plus a flat rate of $18 for shipping any number of bracelets.
Let n be a number of bracelets, and let t be the total cost in dollars.
For Company C, write an equation for the total cost in dollars t in terms of the number of friendship
bracelets n.
t=
In +

Answer 1

Explanation:

For Company C, the total cost in dollars, denoted as t, can be calculated using the following equation:

t = 27n + 18

In this equation, 27n represents the cost of the bracelets (charging $27 per bracelet), and 18 represents the flat rate for shipping any number of bracelets. By summing these two components, we obtain the total cost of the friendship bracelets from Company C in terms of the number of bracelets, n.
