Subtract 20n from both sides of the equation.
n^2+100-20n=0
factor using the perfect square rule.
(n-10)^2=0
set the n-10 equal to 0.
n-10=0
add 10 to both sides of the equation.
n=0

Step-by-step explanation:
$ 3750 = truck rental; $125 per ton of sugar transported
C is cost; S is number of tons transported
Equation relating C to S would be a linear equation like y = mx + b
C = 125S + $3750
This equation would be graphed in the first quadrant only
you would start with your y-intercept at (0, 3750)
As x increases by 1, your y increases by 125 yielding these points:
(1, 3875) (2, 4000) (3, 4125) etc.
This shows that for each increase by one ton of sugar, the cost goes up $125
