Gerald's Horse Supply Company charges $0.85 per pound to ship horse supplies. Part A: Write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of horse supplies. Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of horse supplies.
Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship horse supplies by $0.06 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of horse supplies with the reduced cost.

c = 0.85 ; $1.7 ; c = 0.79p

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Cost per pound of supply shipped = $0.85

Total cost, c to ship p pounds of horse supply

Total cost = cost per pound * pound of supply

c = 0.85 * p

c = 0.85p

Cost of shipping 2 pounds :

c = 0.85 * 2

c = $1. 7

B.)

Reduction in shipping cost :

Reduced cost = $0.85 - $0.06 = $0.79

Total cost = cost per pound * pound of supply

c = 0.79 * p

c = 0.79p

i believe the answer is d.

hope it you! : d
