Let y represent the total cost of publishing a book (in dollars). Let x represent the number of copies of the book printed. Suppose that x and y are related by the equation y=1100+15x
so and what is the question please ?
what is the change in total cost for each book printed?
what is the cost to got started (before any books are printed)?
get*
from what you have wrote above result that you need calcule the value of y for x=0 - yes ?
do you can calcule it so in this way ?
yes
y= x=
ok this mean that so you will get the right answer to this first question
what mean this y= and x= ???
this whole equation is is just confusing, I have no idea how to solve it. Can you walk me through the steps?
y=1100 +15x so how you have wrote in the text of your exercise y mean the cost of x printed books - yes ?
yes
so for the start when the printed booke number is zero so just you need substituting the zero in place of x inside this equation of y and make the calcule so will get the started necessary cost
y=1100 +15x y=1100 +15*0 y = ?
1100?
exactly - so was hard ?
not at all, thanks.
was my pleasure good luck bye bye
