Printer ink cartridges cost $26 each. The company that sells the ink cartridges charges a flat rate of $6.50, no matter how many ink cartridges you buy.
Write an algebraic expression that describes the total cost for a single order of `x`, cartridges.
make a table too.
a) (26+6.50)x
b) 32.50x
c) 26+6.50x
d) 26x+6.50
c) 26 + 6.50x
Table of Total Cost for Different Numbers of Cartridges:
---------------------------------------------------------
| Number of Cartridges (x) | Total Cost |
---------------------------------------------------------
| 1 | 26 + 6.50(1) = 26 + 6.50 |
| 2 | 26 + 6.50(2) = 26 + 13.00|
| 3 | 26 + 6.50(3) = 26 + 19.50|
| 4 | 26 + 6.50(4) = 26 + 26.00|
| 5 | 26 + 6.50(5) = 26 + 32.50|
| ... | ... |
