Answer:

The cost of extracting the first 50 tons of copper is $151,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start-up costs of $150,000.

For the 50 tons of cooper.

C(x) = 0.6 + 0.008x

So

C(50) = 0.6 + 0.008*50 = 1

1 thousand dollars.

So

$150,000 + $1,000 = $151,000

The cost of extracting the first 50 tons of copper is $151,000.
