Answer:
use a ruler to answer the question
Answer:
$ 3750 = truck rental; $125 per ton of sugar transported
C is cost; S is number of tons transported
Equation relating C to S would be a linear equation like y = mx + b
C = 125S + $3750
This equation would be graphed in the first quadrant only
you would start with your y-intercept at (0, 3750)
As x increases by 1, your y increases by 125 yielding these points:
(1, 3875) (2, 4000) (3, 4125) etc.
This shows that for each increase by one ton of sugar, the cost goes up $125
Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER: x = -0.082
EXPLANATION:
1. Apply logarithm to both sides of the
equation. If one of the terms has base 10,
use common logarithm, otherwise, use
natural logarithm
2. Use the different properties of logarithms
to solve for the variable.

-92 _ 7 = 49
7.17-92 = 56
17-92 = 8

2 of 3
Add both sides by 7
Divide both sides by 7
Convert to logarithm
Divide both sides by - 9
