Solve.
-A vendor has learned that, by pricing carmel apples at $\$ 1.25$ , sales will reach 91 carmel apples per day. Raising the price to $\$ 2.25$ will cause the sales to fall to 43 carmel apples per day. Let $y$ be the number of carmel apples the vendor sells at $x$ dollars each. Write a linear equation that relates the number sold $y$ to the price $x$ .

A) $y = - 48 x - 151$
B) $y = 48 x + 31$
C) $y = - 48 x + 151$
D) $y = - \frac { 1 } { 48 } x + \frac { 17467 } { 192 }$
