Equation:
Total cost to transport 17 tons of sugar:
Answer:
It will cost $7500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $225 for each ton of sugar transported
C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported
total cost C=225S +7500 is the equation relating C to S
for total cost to transport 17 tons of sugar , S= 17
C=(225*17) +7500
C=(3825) +7500
C=11325$
Total cost to transport 17 tons of sugar:=11325$
