The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $5500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $225 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 . Then use this equation to find the total cost to transport 12 tons of sugar.

Ok first of all we know it's linear and will look like y=mx +c

In this example y=C and X=S

The answer is:
C= (225)S + 5500

So for 12 tons of sugar you substitute S with 12..

C=225(12) + 5500
