Question

James is placing an order for four for his bakery. The company he purchases from charges $25 for the first bag and $5 for each additional bag for shipping costs. Each 50 lb bag of the flour he uses is $19

Part A
Write an equation to model the total cost,c. of b bags of four including shipping costs given he orders more than one (1) bag of flour

Answer 1

A: CxB= Total

A: (4x19)x5+25=$405

Explanation:

First you would find the total of all of the 4 bags. Witch would be 4x19=76. Then you would multiply that by shipping cost 76x5=380. Lastly you would add the $25 380+$25= 405. Think that is right. Hope this helps!
