Question

A 4-pound bag of apples costs $5.00. Based on that rate, which equation shows how y, the cost in dollars, is realted to x, the weight in pounds?
y = x - 1

y = 1.25x

y = 0.8x

y = x + 1

Answer 1

Hey there!

The answer would be B. y = 1.25x

If each pound is $1.25 and you get 4 pounds then that would equal to $5.00 or y.


Hope this helps !
