Part A: Chose some value for x, that means any amount of books to print for example 100 books, so x=100
Replace x=100 in C(x) and solve:
C(100)=3.5*100+1200=1550
Part B: Replace C(x) by 1900 and solve for x from the given equation:
1900=3.5x+1200
3.5x=1900-1200
x=700/3.5= 200
Part C: the statement C(20)=1270 means that 1270 is the cost for printing 20 books.
Part E: C(40.5)=1341.75 I think this statement is incorrect given the context because x means number of books to print so this value must be an integer number.
Answer:
D.The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex is at x=1.5, so the function is decreasing on one side of that and increasing on the other. Any answer choice with some number other than 1.5 as the boundary of increasing/decreasing can be ignored.
Of course one descriptor (<em>increasing</em> or <em>decreasing</em>) is not applicable for any interval that includes the point where the slope changes sign.
The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < 1.5.
