A recent budget for the California State University system projected a fixed cost of $486,000 at each of five off-campus centers, plus a marginal cost of $1140 per student. (a) Find a formula for the cost at each center, C(x), as a linear function of x, the number of students. (b) The budget projected 500 students at each center. Calculate the total cost at each center.(c) Suppose, due to budget cuts, that each center is limited to $1 million. What is the maximum number of students that each center can then support?
