You are buying pounds of almonds. The company charges a flat fee for shipping. George bought 4 lbs for $62 and 8 lbs for $110. Write an equation that represents the total money spent for buying any number of pounds of almonds.Write your final answer in slope intercept form. Please help,would like if someone would give me an understanding what slope intercept form is and flat fee. Thanks

Answer 1

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

It is the form where m is the slope of a line on a graph and b is the y-intercept.

A flat fee isn't very important to answering the question. It is just a certain way of pricing objects.
