Answer:

a) C = 250 + 1.25n

b) 1800

c) 300

Explanation:

a) To write the equation for these problems, let's establish the constant, $250, since we are given that $250 is a FIXED cost, meaning no matter how many brochures we print, we will have to pay $250. Then, we have to pay $1.25 for each brochure, so for n amount of brochures, so we have 1.25*n. Putting it together, we have the fixed cost + the cost of producing n brochures, C = 250 + 1.25C

b) The cost of printing 2500 brochures can be found by pluggin number into the equation above. C = 250 + 1.25*2500 = $1800

c) This is the opposite question, since 625 is the final cost, we plug it into the final cost, 625 = 250 + 1.25*n. Solving gives n = 300
