A television company uses a factory to manufacture one of its parts. The factory has a monthly fixed cost of $700 and an additional cost of $85 per part. If C is the total cost of using the factory for a month, and P represents the number of parts the factory manufactures in a month, which of these is the correct relationship between P and C?
MGSE9-12.A.APR.1 The amount of money a CEO has to put away each year to cover the possible cost of
benefits, B, for her employees is B = 8x- 5x + 4, where x is the number of employees, The actual amount
she spent on benefits, A, last year was A =7+7x+3x. Any amount that is remaining, R, is put into a
savings account.

- Suppose the prices of the commodities A and B are p1 and p2 respectively. The consumer purchases X1 unit of A and X2 units of B. Suppose, the consumer has an income denoted by M and the consumer would spend the entire amount of M on these two commodities. How are p1, p2, X1, X2 and M related?arrow_forwardIn an economics setting we often see P = R – C where P is the profit a business makes, Ris the revenue brought in from sales, and C is the overall cost of operating the business. As a simplistic example, if we have a cost of C = $3000 to make some amount of product, and we sell that for R= $5000 in revenue, we have made P = R – C = $5000 – $3000 = $2000 as a profit. In some cases, the price you can sell a product for is dependent on how many you sell, because of the relationship between supply and demand - when you have fewer of them available, you can sell them for a higher price, for example. If we have a price function p (x), the revenue function will be R (x) = x · p (x) because the money brought in will be the number of units sold times the price of each unit. The cost of production, measured per unit, may decrease based on how many you produce, if you can purchase materials in bulk, but this requires a greater initial investment. Often we can use information about how the cost…arrow_forwardA manufacturer has a fixed cost of $10,000. If it costs the company $17,515 to produce 45 units, how much does it cost to produce 82units?

- Consider that the relation between the cost of production, the lot of size production and the number of labours if for a particular point the slop is change to another point where Xp=26 for X1, Xp=22 for X2, find the linear model for this relation and write it.arrow_forwardDirections: Solve the following problems. 1. The proportion of students who passed an engineering examination was 80%. Students complained that they would have done better if they were allowed to use calculators. Later, a random sample of 90 students took this exam with calculators and 75 passed. Was this a significant improvement at 0.05 level? 2. It is claimed that the average time spent by employees on telephone calls is less than 6 minutes. In a study time spent on the telephone by its employees, a large office monitors a random sample of 25 employee calls and finds the mean length of this calls to be 5.8 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.4 minutes. Is the claim true at 0.05 level of significance?arrow_forward1. ARVA teachers were discussing how many pull-ups they can do. Mr. Leppold claims he can do 3 more pull-ups than Mr. Will. Mrs. Crump says she can do 5 more than Mr. Leppold. a. Write an equation for how many pull-ups each teacher can do, using variables (L for Mr. Leppold, W for Mr. Will, C for Mrs. Crump): L = C = W = b. Make an equation for the number of pull-ups for Mr. Will using the variable C: W = c.
