First, we need to find how much a single pound of apples costs.
Do this by dividing.

Now, write an equation.

This represents that the cost equals 3.5 times the number of apples.
Answer:
4800
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached a picture of the work.
We need to made a function that will help us solve this
f(x)=dx; d = $ per hour, x = # of hours
step 1) identify d (in this case, the money made per hour) which = 10
f(x)=10x
step 2) identify x (# of hours total) which = 480
f(x)=10(480)
step 3) solve the equation
f(x)=4800
independent variable:
the number of hours
dependant variable:
the amount of money made after 12 weeks
Answer:
$9918.30
Step-by-step explanation:
The total tax is ...
