Question 942822: it's my racquet experienced fixed costs of $950 and variable costs of $24 for each tennis racquet that is restrung. Write an equation that can be used to determine the total costs encountered by it's my Racquet when x racquets are restrung. Then determine the total cost of restringing 150 tennis racquets.
Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let t = total cost
let f = fixed cost
let v = variable cost per racquet.
let x = the number of racquets to be restrung.

the formula is:

t = f + vx

you are given that f = 950.
you are given that v = 24

the formula becomes:

t = 950 + 24x

when x = 150, the formula becomes:

t = 950 + 24 * 150.

simplify to get t = 4550.
