The XYZ Company sells hats and will monogram them if customers choose. The price for each monogram varies depending on how many hats a customer would like to have monogrammed. The monogram prices for several order sizes are shown on a chart from the XYZ Company, which are: 1 hat is $5.00; 2 hats are $4.50; 3 hats are $4.00; 4 hats are $3.50; 5 hats are $3.00, and 6 hats are $2.50. Which of the equations best expresses the relationship of price per monogram (for all nonnegative values of p) to number of hats monogrammed shown in the information? Is it p=$5.00-(n-1)$0.50; p=$5.00-n($0.50); p=(n-1)$5.00; p=$0.50(10n); or p=$5.00(10n)?
