\n" ); document.write( "The three additional samples cost an additional $3, so the cost of each sample is $1.

\n" ); document.write( "That makes $5 for 5 samples; so if admission plus 5 samples costs $9.75, then the cost of admission is $9.75-$5 = $4.75.

\n" ); document.write( "Then a function rule for the cost of admission and x samples is

\n" ); document.write( "\"c%28x%29+=+4.75%2Bx\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
