- A store has issued two different coupons for its customers to use. One coupon gives customers $20 off their purchase price, and the other coupon gives customers 30% off of their purchase. The store allows customers to use both coupons and choose which coupon to apply first. For this context, ignore sales tax. Let ff be the function that inputs a cost (in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "$20 off" coupon, and let gg be the function that inputs a cost (in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "30% off" coupon. A customer purchases an item for $120 and asks the cashier to apply the "$20 off" coupon first, followed by the "30% off" coupon. What is the cost of the item after the two coupons are applied? $ A customer purchases an item for $120 and asks the cashier to apply the "$20 off" coupon first, followed by the "30% off" coupon.

To determine a formula for the total cost, we need to know the manufacturer's fixed costs (covering things such as plant maintenance and insurance), as well as the cost for each unit produced, which is called the variable cost. To find the total cost, we multiply the variable cost by the number of items produced during that period and then add the fixed costs.Suppose that a manufacturer of widgets has fixed costs of $7000 per month and that the variable cost is $16 per widget (so it costs $16 to produce 1 widget). (a) Use a formula to express the total cost C of this manufacturer in a month as a function of the number of widgets produced in a month.
