It will cost 6500 to rent trucks plus 225 for each ton of sugar transported. the total cost, c (in dollars), for transporting n tons is given by the following function

C = 6500 + 225n

Step-by-step explanation:

It will cost $6500 to rent a truck plus $225 for each ton of sugar transported.

So, in the equation which relates the total cost for transporting sugar in a truck, $6500 will be the initial value and $225 will be the rate of transporting sugar per ton.

Hence, for transporting n tons of sugar, the total cost C in dollars is given by the following equation  

C = 6500 + 225n (Answer)
