Answer:

For
3,604\ books the cost for both methods will be the same

Explanation:

Let

y ------> the production cost

x ------> the number of books

we know that

First production Method


y=19.25x+22,427 -------> equation A

Second production Method


y=10.50x+53,962 -------> equation B

Solve the system of equations

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x


19.25x+22,427=10.50x+53,962


19.25x-10.50x=53,962-22,427


8.75x=31,535


x=3,604\ books
