The sale price of shrimp at a local grocery store is $1.15 for the first ounce and $0.95 for each additional ounce. Which function rule shows how the cost of shrimp, y, depends on the number of ounces, x?
A - y = 1.15x + 0.95
B - y = (0.95 + 1.15)x
C - y = 0.95x + 1.15
D - y = 0.95(x - 1) + 1.15

Respuesta :

option A. y = 1.15 + 0.95x

1.15 is a fixed cost and 0.95 is a variable cost that has to be multiplied by the number of ounces of shrimp, x.
