Bob is selling floral arrangements. Each arrangement uses 1 vase and 15 tulips. Each vase costs Bob $4.00. Let C be the total co
st of the arrangement and t be the cost of 1 tulip. Write an equation, in slope-intercept form, that represents the total cost of each arrangement to Bob.
There would be 15 tulips + 1 vase per each arrangement, so we could write: 15(t) + 4 =C
However, that if not in slope-intercept form. So, let us rewrite our equation... We know that slope-intercept form is in the format y=mx+b, therefore our new equation must be, too. We will let C be our "y," 15(t) be our "mx" and 4 be our "b." Which would look like this: C=15(t)+4 Which can be more simply written as: C=15t+4.
Boom, that's your answer. I hope this helped. Best of luck on your test/homework
