Question

A company produces T-shirts there is a fixed monthly cost of $500 to produce the T-shirt's and a cost of $4.50 per tshirt for production the company plans on selling the tshirts for $11.50 each write an expression to determine the cost to produce x tshirts in a month

Answer 1

C(X) = 4.50 X + 500 is the cost for producing X t -shirts.

Explanation:

The fixed production cost = $500

Let the number of t shirts produced each month = X

Cost of production of each T shirt = $4.50

Selling price of each shirt = $11.50

Now, The cost of production of X shirts

= X times ( Cost of each t shirt production) + Fixed Production Cost

= X ( $4.50) + $500

= 4.50 X + 500

or C(X) = 4.50 X + 500 is the cost for producing X t shirts.
