Question 200946: The following function computes the cost, C (in millions of dollars), of implementing a city recycling project when x percent of the citizens participate. C(X)=1.4x/100-x
a)Using the model, find the cost if 60% of the citizens participate.
b)Using the model, determine the percentage of participation that can be expected if $4 million is spent on this recycling project. Set up an equation and solve algebraically. Round to the nearest whole percent.
