Answer 3

No

Answer 4

I dont see how we can relate cost to the number of sugar tons

Answer 5

i need an equation and total cost to transport 14 tons of sugar

Answer 6

Hi,

"""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 14 tons of sugar."""

Lets begin by dissecting your question.

>S represents the amount of sugar
>C is the total cost.
>ind the total cost to transport 14 tons.

Okay, so we need the price. Therefore, we're solving for C.
_____________________________________________________________

S = C.

But wait, this can't be correct. We're missing some more information.

""""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 $250""""

>3,500 to rent trucks and an additional 250.

We know how: S(3,500) + 250 = C.

Alright, so we know S is in tons. So, we're asked to find: the total for 14 tons.

______________________________________________________________

Our next step is to plug in 14 to S.

14(3,500) + 25 = C

Now, just simplify to solve for C.

Answer 7

what is the equation

Answer 8

i cant put that equation

Answer 9

S(3,500) + 250 = C.

The equation may be in a different form. Look for on like that.
