Solution
- The equation of the line is given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ where, \\ y-value\text{ is the Cost \lparen C\rparen} \\ x-value\text{ is the Sugar \lparen S\rparen} \\ m=slope\text{ or rate} \\ b=y-intercept\text{ or initial amount} \\ \\ \\ C=mS+b \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]
- We have been given:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=100 \\ b=2600 \end{gathered}[/tex]
- Thus, the equation is:
[tex]C=100S+2600[/tex]
- The graph of the equation is
