Question

Let C(x)=600+60x be the cost to manufacture x items.Find the average cost per item, to the nearest dollar, to produce 30 items.

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct answer: B: $80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function, C(x) = 600 + 60x, where:

C(x) = represents the total cost to manufacture x items

    x = number of manufactured items

Substitute x = 30 into the given function:

C(30) = 600 + 60(30)

C(30) = 600 + 1800

C(30) = 2400 ← This represents the total cost to produce 30 items.  We need to find out the average cost per item.

Thus, we need to divide $2,400 by 30 to get the average cost of producing each item:

$2,400 / 30 = $80

Therefore, the correct answer is B) $80
