The lit club is printing a storybook to raise money. the print shop charges $2 for each book and $55 to create the film. How many books can the club print if their budget is $365?

Question

anonymous · Answer

you can model the cost expense of the lit club as follows:

$$C(x) = 2x + 55$$

where x is the number of books printed

you are restricting the total cost C(x) to 365 so let

365 = 2x + 55

solve for x, and that will determine the # of books that can be printed within the budget
