Represent the relationship between the total cost and the number of items, if total cost t is proportional to the number n of items purchased at a constant price p.

t = pn

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the relationship between total cost and the number of items.

First we would represent the relationship between total cost and number of items with variables

Let the total cost = t

and the number of items = n

Total cost t is proportional to the number n of items:

t ∝ n

t = kn

where k is constant

Since it is purchased at a constant price p, the constant of proportionality would be p. the k would be replaced with p

t = pn

what are ur choices?

option c) graph of line going through 1, 4 and 3, 10

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to margo's coin collection

let x equal to number of years

at the begining x=0, y=1 → point=(x,y)→point=(0,1)

she adds 3 coins per year, then y=1+3x

at x=1, y=1+3(1)=1+3→y=4→point=(x,y)→point=(1,4)

at x=3, y=1+3(3)=1+9→y=10→point=(x,y)→point=(3,10)

the graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10), then the option c is the correct.
