Question

A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. Let c be the total cost of publishing the book (in dollars). Let n be the number of copies of the book produced. For the first printing, the company can produce up to 100 copies of the book. Suppose that c=10+600 gives c as a function of n during the first printing

Answer 1

Domain: number of copies produced = {0, 1, 2, 3, ... , 100}

Image: cost of publishing copies = {600, 610, 620, 630, ... , 1,600}

Explanation:

The original question is regarding the domain and image of the cost ('c') function.

The function is:

`c=10n+600`

The domain of the function is the number of copies produced, which encompasses all natural numbers from 0 to 100 copies.

The image of the function is the cost of publishing those copies, which starts at c = 600 (when n = 0 copies), and increases by 10 per copy until c = 1,600 (when n= 100 copies).

The domain is {0, 1, 2, 3, ... , 100}

The image is {600, 610, 620, 630, ... , 1,600}
