Question

A textbook company keeps track of its daily cost for printing whole textbooks to different schools, but can only print up to 500 books a day. The daily cost (C) to print x number of textbooks is given by C(x) = 3.50x + 1200.

Using the function, determine one possible daily cost by evaluating the function for any input of your choice.
For what value of x does C(x) = 1900?
Interpret the statement C(20) = 1270.
Interpret the statement C(w) = p.
Explain whether C(40.5) = 1341.75 is correct and possible given the context of this problem.

Answer 1

first, choose any number to be x. Find 3.5×(that value) + 1200
then solve 3.50x + 1200 = 1900
C(x) is the cost for printing x books. this line means that "It cost's $1270 to print 20 books"
same thing as 3: It costs p dollars to print w books
can you print half a book? no, so C(40.5) does not make sense in the context

Answer 2

It's 11:47 where I live this was due last week could you help a brother out? I will fan medal and write an awesome testimony

Answer 3

I will take that as a no? @timanti

Answer 4

what do you mean?

Answer 5

Idk you left me *starts whimpering*

Answer 6

first choose any to be x. find 3.5x(that value) + 1200 then solve 3.50x + 1200 = 1900 C(x) is the cost for printing x books this line means that it costs $1270 to print 20 books same thing as 3: it cost p dollars to print w books. can you print half a book? no, so C(40.5) does not make sense in the context
