Problema Solution
The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $2600 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $100 for each ton of sugar transported.
Let C represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S.
Answer provided by our tutors
The equation relating C to S is C = S x 100 + 2600
The cost to rent trucks is $2600
The freight charge per Ton is $100, the total weight is "S" Ton, the total freight charge is S x 100
The total cost "C" = the total freight charge + trucks rent cost, namely as C = S x 100 + 2600
