Question 1033764: The function C(x)=25x + 80000 express the total cost (C)(in $) of manufacturing x units of a product. If the maximum number of units which can be produced equals 20000, state the restricted domain and range for this function.
PLEASE HELP ME FIND SOLUTION TO THAT PROBLEM, THANKS.

c(x) = 25x + 80000.

your x value has to be less than or equal to 20000.
presumably it also has to be greater than 0, because you can't have a negative number of units produced.

so your domain is 0 <= x <= 20,000.

when x is equal to 0, your total cost is 80,000.

when x is equal to 20,000, your total cost is 25 * 20,000 + 80,000 = 580,000.

your range is 80,000 <= y <= 580,000.

the graph of your cost equation is y = 25*x + 80000

you restrictions are that:

x can't be less than 0.
y can't be less than 0.
x can't be greater than 20,000.

based on those restrictions, your graph would look something like this.

$$$

the shaded regions are the value that x and y can't take.

y can't be less than 0.
x can't be less than 0 or greater than 20,000.

the permisible values for your cost function are in the white and on the line of y = 25*x + 80,000.

the limits are between 80,000 and 580,000.
