Customers can pick their own apples at well orchards. They pay $6 to enter the orchard and $2 per pound for the apples they pick. Write a equation to model the total cost, y, for x pounds of apples.

Sagot :

Y=6+2x

Since y equals the total cost, it will be on its own in the equation. 6 dollars is a set amount, meaning that no matter how many apples they pick it’ll stay the same. HOWEVER, the cost will change depending on how many pound of apples they get

Every pound of apples is equal to 2 dollars, and since x stands for pounds of apples, it’ll be ( ex: x = 2, so 2x = 2(2) = 4)

So the equation will be y = 6 + 2x

I hope this helps
