Answer:

[tex]b(n)=2.42n[/tex]

Explanation:

We are told that the grocery bill b is a function of n (the number of bags of chips). This means that the grocery bill can be represented as b(n).

Furthermore, we know that each bag of chips costs 2.42, meaning n bags of chips will cost 2.42n - which is the grocery bill b(n); therefore,

[tex]b(n)=2.42n[/tex]

which is the equation the gives the grocery bill (as a function of n, the number of chips bags bought).
