Answer:

Explanation:

Given : The function
C = 12x + 1500 models the cost of consumable computer supplies for a school district. In the equation, C represents the cost (in thousands of dollars), and x represents the number of years since 2015.

The number of years from 2015 to 2030=
t=2030-2015=15

Substitute t= 15 in the given equation ,we get


C = 12(15) + 1500\\\\\Rightarrow\ C=180+1500\\\\\Rightharrow\ C=1680

According to the model, the cost be for the year 2030 =
\$1,680,000
