Question

You are considering buying organic milk at the grocery store. A gallon of organic milk costs $1.00 more than a regular gallon of milk. Write an equation to represent the additional cost (C) of buying a gallon of organic mik over time (t) where x represents the cost of a gallon of regular milk​

Answer 1

C= $1t + x

Explanation:

So, an organic gallon of milk is 1 dollar more then regular so the equation starts at $1 + x.

But then buying the organic milk over time is t so you add that to the one dollar since it applies to the organic milk. Now the equation is $1t + x.

But now, the expression we wrote is equal to C so, now the equation is C=$1t + x
