The cost of producing a number of items x is given by C=mx+b, in which b is the fixed cost and m is the variable cost (the cost of producing one more item)
\n" ); document.write( "a.) if the fixed cost is $40 and the variable cost is $10, write the cost equaton
\n" ); document.write( "In the formula \"highlight%28C=mx%2Bb%29\", m=variable cost and b=fixed cost
\n" ); document.write( "m=10 and b=40
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28C=10x%2B40%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Happy Calculating!!!
\n" ); document.write( "
