HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are making a candle for your friends. A mold for the candles coast $22.50 and wax to make one candle coast $5. Write an algebraic expression for the total coast of making x candles. You make 8 candles. Find the total coast.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

$22.50 is a fixed cost. You only pay that once because you only need to buy one mold. $5 is how much each candle uses in wax, so you need to pay $5 for each candle. Ok so far?
