A company that packages cold cuts needs to transport the packaged meat to the supermarket. It will cost $1,200 to rent a truck, and it will cost an
additional $100 for every 50 pounds transported. Which equation represents the transport cost for every 50 pounds of cold cuts transported?
A. y = 1,200 - 100x
B. y = 1,200 + 100x
c. y = 1,200x + 100
D. y = 100x - 1,200
