Question

The East River High School math teachers are buying ice cream cones for all of the algebra students. Dairy Queen charges a one time fee of $15 to deliver the treats to the school and each cone cost $2. Write an equation in y=mx+b form (NO SPACES) that can be used to find the total cost of ice cream cones for ERHS students.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the total amount paid by the teachers.

It is provided that the Dairy Queen charges a one time fee of $15 to deliver the treats to the school and each cone cost $2.

Let x represent the number of cones bought.

Then the equation that can be used to find the total cost of ice cream cones for ERHS students is:

y = 2x + 15
