Question

Instructions:Select the correct answer.
A company that packages cold cuts needs to transport the packaged meat to the supermarket. It will cost $1,200 to rent a truck, and it will cost an additional $100 for every 50 pounds transported. Which equation represents the transport cost for every 50 pounds of cold cuts transported?


y = 1,200 − 100x



y = 1,200 + 100x



y = 1,200x + 100



y = 100x − 1,200

Answer 1

please your costs are $1,200 and $100*x, for every x pound transported

Answer 2

where x is in unit of 50 pounds

Answer 3

y= 1200+100x

x= Every 50 pounds transported
y= total cost
$1200 is the initial cost, and you're adding another $100 for every 50 pounds transported.
