The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $125 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 , and then graph your equation using the axes below.

The relationship between the total cost and the amount of sugar is an illustration of a linear equation.

  • The equation that relates C to S is: [tex]\mathbf{S = 3500 + 125C}[/tex].
  • See attachment for the graph of [tex]\mathbf{S = 3500 + 125C}[/tex]

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{Base = 3500}[/tex] --- the cost of renting the truck

[tex]\mathbf{Rate = 125}[/tex] -- the cost of each ton transported

So, the equation is:

[tex]\mathbf{S = Base + Rate \times C}[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]\mathbf{S = 3500 + 125 \times C}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{S = 3500 + 125C}[/tex]

Hence, the equation that relates C to S is: [tex]\mathbf{S = 3500 + 125C}[/tex]
