Make a real-world scenario problem that goes with an infinite solution equation

1 answer

Scenario:
A company produces widgets at a constant rate of 100 per day. Every day, they have to pay a fixed cost of $500 to cover overhead expenses. In addition, they have to pay $2 for every widget produced. The company wants to determine the total cost of production over a period of time.

Infinite solution equation:
Let x represent the number of days the company produces widgets. The total cost of production can be represented by the equation:

Total Cost = $500 + $2*100x

This equation has an infinite number of solutions because the company will continue to produce widgets indefinitely, resulting in an ongoing accumulation of production costs.
