At Tex's Taco Truck, a basic taco costs $3
and comes with just lettuce and tomato.
Other toppings can be added for $1 each.
Let t represent the number of toppings
added and c represent the total cost in
dollars.
This relationship can also be shown in a
table. Complete the equation that represents
the
relationship between t and c.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sf a = \boxed{\bf 1} \ n+ \boxed{\bf 3}$

Explanation:

$\sf \underline{rate} \ = \ \sf \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \ = \ \dfrac{rise}{run} \ = \ \dfrac{11-10}{8-7} \ = \ \underline{1}$

Equation:

$\Rightarrow \sf a - a1 = m(n - n1)$

$\Rightarrow \sf a - 10 = 1(n -7)$

$\Rightarrow \sf a = n - 7 + 10$

$\Rightarrow \sf a = n + 3$
