PLEASE HELP ME!!!! thank u

Answer 1

Answers:

• The equation is C = 1500S + 4500
• The graph is a straight line that goes through (0,4500) and (1,6000)

================================================================

Explanation:

S = number of tons of sugar

150S = cost of transporting all S tons of sugar

150S+4500 = total cost since we add on the $4500 fixed cost

C = 150S+4500 is the cost equation

--------------------------

If we replace C and S with y and x (in that order), then the equation turns into y = 1500x+4500

To graph this, you only need two points since this is a linear equation in the form y = mx+b. We have m = 1500 as the slope and b = 4500 as the y intercept.

To find a point, you plug in some number for x to get a corresponding y value. For instance, if x = 0

y = 1500x+4500

y = 1500(0)+4500

y = 4500

Showing (0,4500) is the y intercept and one point on the line

Now plug in x = 1

y = 1500x+4500

y = 1500(1)+4500

y = 6000

Showing (1,6000) is another point on the line

You can keep going to generate more points, but two is enough.

The graph will be a straight line through (0,4500) and (1,6000)
