Manufacturing Cost The manager of a furniture factory finds that it costs 2200 to produce 100 chairs in one day and 4800 to produce 300 chairs in one day. a Assuming that the relationship between cost and the number of chairs produced is linear, find a linear function C that models the cost of producing x chairs in one day. b Draw a graph of C. What is the slope of this line? c At what rate does the factorys cost increase for every additional chair produced?
Manufacturing Cost The manager of a furniture factory finds that it costs $2200 to produce 100 chairs in one day and $4800 to produce 300 chair in or day. (a) Assuming that the relationship between cost and the number of chair’ produced is linear, find a linear function C that models the cost of producing x chair’s in one day. (b) Draw a graph of C. What is the slope of this line? (c) At what rate does the factory’s cost increase for every additional chair produced?
TEST YOUR UNDERSTADING FOR EXAMPLE 3.5 A donation to the university is required for the privilege of purchasing premium season football passes. The cost is a linear function of the number of season passes. It costs 8000 to get season passes for myself and my spouse. To get passes for my entire family of 5, it costs 17,000. Use a formula to express the total cost C, in dollars, of n season passes. EXAMPLE 3.5 CHANGING CELSIUS TO FAHRENHEIT Temperature F=F(C) in Fahrenheit is a linear function of the temperature C in Celsius. A lab assistant placed a Fahrenheit thermometer beside a Celsius thermometer and observed the following: When the Celsius thermometer reads 30 degree (C=30), the Fahrenheit thermometer reads 86 degrees (F=86). When the Celsius thermometer reads 40 degrees, the Fahrenheit thermometer reads 104 degrees. Part 1 Use a formula to express F as a linear function of C. Part 2 At sea level, water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. What temperature in degrees Celsius makes water boil? Part 3 Explain in practical terms what the slope means in this setting.
