Question

Customers can pick their own pumpkins at the great pumpkin patch. They pay $4 to enter and $3 per pound for the pumpkins they pick. Write an equitation to model the total cost, y, for x pounds of pumpkins.

Answer 1

Answer:

y=3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is the y intercept and 3 is the slope which is how much per pound. The equation you can use is y=mx+b, m is the slope so you fill it in with 3 and b is the y intercept so you fill it in with 4.

Answer 2

Y=3x+4

y is the total cost, x, the pounds of pumpkin charges $3, and +4 because you need to pay $4 to go in
