An online candy store sells 3 pounds of fudge for every $54.99 which function represents the relationship between X and the number of pounds of fudge ordered and why the total cost dollars
Let X represent the number of pounds of fudge ordered.
The relationship between X and the total cost in dollars can be represented by the function:
f(X) = (54.99/3) * X
The function above shows that for every 3 pounds of fudge ordered, the cost is $54.99. The function calculates the total cost by dividing the total cost for 3 pounds by 3 pounds, and then multiplying by the number of pounds ordered. This gives the total cost in dollars for the number of pounds of fudge ordered.
