Question

The function C(x)=−15x+2304 represents the cost to produce x items. What is the least number of items that can be produced so that the average cost is no more than $33?

Answer 1

152

Explanation:

Given the function :

C(x)=−15x+2304

The least Number of items, x that can be produced so that average cost does not exceed $33

C(x) = less than or equal to 33

33 = - 15x + 2304

33 - 2304 = - 15x

-2271 = - 15x

x = 2271 / 15

x = 151. 4

Hence, the least number of items that can be produced is 152
