Question

A local sandwich store has a fixed weekly cost of $575.00, and variable costs for making a roast beef sandwich are $030. Let x represent the number of roast beef sandwiches made and sold each week. Write the weekly cost function, C, for the local sandwich store. (Hint: The cost function is the sum of fixed and variable costs.) C(x) = 575.00 + (0.70)x (Use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression.)

Answer 1

The correct weekly cost function for the sandwich store with a fixed cost of $575 and variable cost of $0.30 per sandwich is C(x) = 575 + 0.30x.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to write the weekly cost function, C(x), for a local sandwich store with fixed costs and variable costs associated with producing roast beef sandwiches. The fixed weekly cost is $575.00, and the variable cost per sandwich is wrongly stated as $030, which seems like a typo and should be $0.30.

Therefore, the corrected cost function that includes both fixed and variable costs would be C(x) = 575 + 0.30x, where x represents the number of roast beef sandwiches made and sold each week.
