Question

A business spends $3500 to purchase a copy machine. The business also spends $125 per month on maintenance and supplies for the copy machine. What function equation represents the total cost of the copy machine after x months? A. f(x)= 125x-3500 B. f(x)=3500x-125 C. f(x)=125x+3500 D. f(x)=3500x+125

Answer 1

I Believe It's C - f(x)=125x+3500

Answer 2

Answer: C.
`f(x)=125x+3500`

Explanation:

Given: A business spends $3500 to purchase a copy machine. The business also spends $125 per month on maintenance and supplies for the copy machine.

∴Cost of copy machine =$3500

Monthly spending on machine= $125

Thus, The total cost of the copy machine= $3500+$125 times the number of months.

Therefore, the function equation represents the total cost of the copy machine after x months will be

`f(x)=3500+125*\ x`

`f(x)=125x+3500`
