Question

a young entrepreneur purchased a lemonade stand for $30 each cup of lemonade cost $0.25 in materials let x equal the number of lemonade cups sold which functions represents the average cost C, if a cup of lemonade ?

Answer 1

The cost of the lemonade stand is $ 30.

The number of lemonade cups is x.

The price of each cup of lemonade is $ 0.25.

The cost function can be determined as,

$\begin{gathered} c(x)=average\cos t\text{ of lemonade stand}+\text{price of each cup} \\ =\frac{30}{x}+0.25 \\ =\frac{30+0.25x}{x} \end{gathered}$

Thus, option (A) is the correct option.
