Question

Customers can pick their own apples at wells orchards. They pay $6 to enter the orchard and $2 per pound for the apples they pick. Write an equation to model the total cost, y, for x pounds of apples

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Customers can pick their own apples at wells orchards.

The entrance fees to the orchard = $6.00

The price of the apples = $2.00 per pound

Let the apples picked by the customers = x pounds

So cost of the x pounds of apples = $2x

Therefore, total cost y = cost of the apples + entry charge

                                  y = 2x + 6

The equation that models the total cost of the apples will be y = 2x + 6

Answer 2

Answer:

Y=2x+6
