The sale price of shrimp at a local grocery store is $1.15 for the first ounce and $0.95 for each additional ounce. Which function rule shows how the cost of shrimp, y, depends on the number of ounces, x?
A.y=1.15x+0.95**
B.y=(0.95+1.15)x
C.y=0.95x+1.15
D.y=0.95(x-1)+1.15
Am i right
Answer is C
The right answer is C
is it D or C?? I think its C because the other comment has 4 likes
Yes, you are correct. The function rule that shows how the cost of shrimp, y, depends on the number of ounces, x, is y = 1.15x + 0.95 (option A).
To explain how to arrive at this answer, let's break down the information given.
The sale price of shrimp at the grocery store is $1.15 for the first ounce. This means that when x = 1 (the first ounce), the cost is $1.15.
For each additional ounce (x > 1), the price is $0.95. This means that for each additional ounce, we add $0.95 to the cost.
So we have a constant cost of $1.15 for the first ounce (x = 1), and then an additional cost of $0.95 for each additional ounce (x > 1).
Therefore, the function rule that represents this relationship is y = 1.15x + 0.95.
