pls hurry; 10 pts The first equation in the following system gives a company's income, in dollars, for selling x baseball caps. The second equation gives the cost of making x baseball caps. y = 8x y = -0.01 x2 + 4x + 3,200 The solution of the system is (400, 3,200). How would you interpret this solution?

Answer:

The cost to produce 400 caps is the same as the income made from selling 400 caps.

The company will break even when it sells 400 caps; it will not make a profit.

Answer: The cost to make 400 baseball caps is $3,200

Explanation:

The answer they gave you is a set of coords, x and y coords to be exact. That means that x value is inputed into the equation and that y value is the asnwer.

You put in 400, you get 3200.

They also gave us that x equals the number of baseball caps. Then y equals the cost of making those baseball caps
