The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additi
onal $225 for each ton of sugar transported. Let C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S. Then use this equation to find the total cost to transport 19 tons of sugar.
Answer: it will cost $7775 to transport 19 tons of sugar.
Step-by-step explanation:
let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported.
Let C represent the total cost of transporting S tons of sugar. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $225 for each ton of sugar transported. The expression for the total cost would be
C = 225S + 3500
To transport 19 tonnes of sugar, the total cost would be
