Manuel builds and sells wooden crates. He made a table to show how much his crates cost.
Which equation represents the situation?
| Crates | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
|--------|----|----|----|----|
| Cost | 25 | 45 | 65 | 85 |
A. [tex] y - 2 = -10(x - 25) [/tex]
B. [tex] y - 4 = 10(x - 45) [/tex]
C. [tex] y - 65 = -10(x - 6) [/tex]
D. [tex] y - 85 = 10(x - 8) [/tex]
Answer (2)
b is the correct answer
The equation that represents Manuel's crate situation is C, which reflects the correct cost per crate increase. After calculating the slope from the table of costs and crates, we confirmed that the slope is positive and consistent. Elevated values can confirm this but also reflects needing careful alignment per pricing models for cost expectations by itemization.
