A school pays $1,825 for 150 shirts. This includes the $25 flat-rate shipping cost. a. What equation models the total cost as a function of the number of T-shirts
ordered?
b. What does each variable represent?
c. What are the initial value and rate of change of the function? What does each
one represent?

a)

We know that the total cost for the 150 shirts (plus a flat-rate of $25) is $1,825.

First, let's find how much costs each shirt.

First, the total cost of the shirts alone (neglecting the flat-rate) is:

$1,825 - $25 = $1,800

Then each shirt costs equal to the quotient of the cost and the number of shirts:

$1,800/150 = $12

Each shirt costs $12.

Then if you order T shirts, the total cost will be the flat-rate of $25 plus T times $12. The equation is:

C(T) = $25 + T*$12

b) C represents the cost

   T represents the number of shirts ordered.

c) The initial value is the constant value, in this case, is $25

The rate of change is the coefficient that multiplies the independent variable (T), in the equation the rate of change is $12.

step-by-step explanation:

the dice has 6 sides and there is only one 5 in a dice.
