6. A basketball coach purchases bananas for the players on his team. The table shows total price
in dollars, P, of n bananas.
Which equation could represent the total price in
dollars for n bananas? (Lesson 2-3)
5.90
(A.) P=0.59n
(C.) P -
n
B.) P= 5.90 - 0.59n
D. P=n +0.59

The equation that represents the total price in dollars for n bananas be P = 0.59n.

The following equation should be considered:

m = (4.72 - 4.13) ÷(8 - 7)

= 0.59

And,

P = mn + b

4.13 = 0.59(7) + b

4.13 = 4.13 + b

b = 0

Now

P = mn + b

= 0.59n + 0

= 0.59n

Therefore we can conclude that the equation that represents the total price in dollars for n bananas be P = 0.59n.
