Answer:
change in the total cost for each book printed = $15
cost to get started (before books are bought) = $1200
Step-by-step explanation:
IF the eqn is y = 15x +1200
where y represent the total cost of publishing a book (in dollars) and
x represent the number of copies of the book printed
then cost to get started (before books are bought) can be found by substitute x=0 into the eqn
y = 1200 + 15*0 = $1200
change in the total cost for each book printed will be the difference in total cost at x=0 and x=1
when x=0, y=1200
when x=1, y=1200+15*1=1215
so the change in total cost=$15
