Answer:

C(x) = x/11 + 34 6/11

Explanation:

The two given points are (x, C) = (60, 40) and (170, 50). These can be used in the 2-point form of the equation for a line to find the cost function.

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (50 -40)/(170 -60)(x -60) +40

y = (1/11)(x -60) +40

C(x) = 1/11x +34 6/11 . . . . . . cost as a function of copies made
