a company is planning to manufacture affordable graphing calculators. The fixed monthly cost will be $50,000 and it will cost $25 to produce each calculator.

Question

a. Write the monthly total cost function, C(x), of producing x graphing calculators per month.

b. Write the average cost function, A(x), of producing x calculators per month.

c. Find the function values A(50), A(100), A(1000), A(100000). Write the values and the interpretation (what does the value of A(x) mean?)

d. Find the horizontal asymptote of the function A(x). What does the horizontal asymptote represent?

Answer 1

Hey Neisha! Not sure what the exact question is but if you are asking the number of calculators they will produce each month at those fixed costs, the answer is 50,000 divided by 25, or 2000. Hope this helps. If not message me and we can work through it!
