A software company is releasing one of its products on CD. The manufacturer charges a $5,500.00 setup fee and $1.00 per CD. Write an equation that can be used to find how many CDs must be produced for the total cost per CD to be $3.50.

Question

A. 5500 + x over x = 3.50
B. 5500 over x plus x = 3.50
C. 5500 + 1 over x = 3.50
D. 5500 + x = 3.50 over x

Answer 1

you want totalcost/totalcds, so
(5500+x)/x = 3.50
