Answer: 6520 + 3x

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate the variable cost per hour which will be:

= (Highest activity cost – Lowest activity cost)/(Highest activity hour – Lowest activity hour)

= (9460 - 7300)/(980 - 260)

= 2160 / 720

= 3

We'll also find the fixed cost which will be:

= Fixed cost = Highest activity cost – (Variable cost per hour x Highest activity hour)

= 9460 - ( 3 x 980)

= 9460 - 2940

= 6520

Therefore, the cost function will be:

= 6520 + 3x
