Answer 1

The company spends $600 on a new computer and printer before beginning the project. Statement A best fits the situation modeled by the function.

What exactly is a function?

A function is a statement, rule, or law that specifies the connection between two variables. Functions are common in mathematics and are required for the formulation of physical connections.

The complete question is

"The function f(x)=600+2x over x yields the average cost in dollars for a company to produce x calendars. Which statement best fits the situation modeled by the function?

a) The company spends $600 on a new computer and printer before beginning the project.

b) The company takes 600 photos before selecting which ones to use for its calendars.

c) The company expects to sell 600 calendars each month.

d) The company will sell the calendars for $6.00 each."

Given;

The average cost function is;

$\rm f(x) =\frac{600+2x}{x}$

Where x is the number of calendars made. The formula for the average price is;

$\rm Average \ cost = \frac{Total \ cost }{ no \ of \ items}$

After comparing the equation we get;

Total cost = 600+2x

Here, the original cost is 600, and each unit costs $2.The initial cost is a fixed expense that happens when productivity is zero. Before starting the project, the business invests $600 in a new computer and printer.

Hence, option a is correct.
