Question

hello this the the problem Im stuck on. I need to know where to plot the point on the graph aswell. ty

Answer 1

Given:

The rent for trucks is $3750.

The additional charge per ton of sugar is $150.

To write: The equation relating the total cost C and amount of sugar S.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation represents the total cost C and the amount of sugar S is given by,

`C=3750+150S`

Let us find the three coordinates to plot the graph.

When

`S=0`

Then,

`\begin{gathered} C=3750+150(0) \\ =3750 \end{gathered}`

When

`S=1`

Then,

`\begin{gathered} C=3750+150 \\ =3900 \end{gathered}`

When

`S=2`

Then,

`\begin{gathered} C=3750+150(2) \\ =3750+300 \\ =4050 \end{gathered}`

So, the coordinates are,

`(0,3750),(1,3900),(2,4050)`

The equation represents the total cost C and the amount of sugar S is given by,

`C=3750+150S`

The graph is,
