Hey, Can you help me with this problem?

Trina's Toy company charges $0.85 per pound to ship toys.
Part A: Write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of toys. Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of toys. (6 points)
Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship toys by $0.05 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of toys with the reduced cost. (4 points)

Answer 1

A cottage industry produces a certain number of toys in a day. The cost of production of each toy (in rupees) was found to be 55 minus the number of articles produced in a day. On a particular day, the total cost of production was Rs. 750. If `x` denotes the number of toys produced that day, form the quadratic equation to find `x` .
