The cost X, in dollars, to produce graphing calculators is given by the function C(x) = 51x + 2000, where x is the number of calculators produced. How many calculators can be produced for $104,000?
1 answer
This seems to be simple algebra. C(x) is the total cost of the calculators, and the total cost is also $104,000. So now we have the equation 104,000=51x+2000. Subtract 2000 from both sides of the equation and divide by 51.
