Answer:
(8.50x + 2000)/x and x>1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, this may not be the exact answer, as it seems you have the choices unlisted--if they even exist at all. But, I'll make do with what I've provided, so
In the question, it says the collective cost for each individual bolt is $8.50, and that we can use the variable x to represent the number of bolts the company wishes to produce. So, this can be shown using 8.50x.
The fixed cost is set in stone, so no alterations need to be applied, and only cause the total to amount to a greater number. So, we end up with (8.50x + 2000)/x and x>1 is the rule for the values of x. Essentially, all that means is that the company will always produce more than one bolt.
