PLZZ HELP!!!....



The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $175 for each ton of sugar transported.

Let C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S . Then use this equation to find the total cost to transport 13 tons of sugar.

Answer 1

first find the fix rate = ???
then ton of sugar = 175 (S) S represents ton of sugar

Answer 2

then you have C = total cost
so how would the equation looks like

Answer 3

fixrate + 175(S) = C ?

Answer 4

fix rate = 3500

Answer 5

so you have
C = 3500 + 175 (S)

no you can solve when S = 13

Answer 6

C=5775

Answer 7

correct

Answer 8
