student council is printing yearbooks to sell. Quick Print charges $750 to set up a large print job and charges $4.50 per yearbook.
\n" ); document.write( " The student council is selling the yearbooks for $19.50 each.
\n" ); document.write( " Let x represent the number of yearbooks and y represent the cost.
\n" ); document.write( "Cost: y = 4.50x + 750
\n" ); document.write( "Revenue: y = 19.50x
\n" ); document.write( "A. How many yearbooks does the student council need to sell in order to break even?(HINT: determine point of intersection).
\n" ); document.write( "Rev = cost, y=y
\n" ); document.write( "19.50x = 4.50x + 750
\n" ); document.write( "19.5x - 4.5x = 750
\n" ); document.write( "15x = 750
\n" ); document.write( "x = 750/15 = 50 yr books need to be sold to break even
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "B. Determine the cost to print 150 yearbooks.
\n" ); document.write( "Cost = 150(4.5) + 750
\n" ); document.write( "Cost = 675 + 750
\n" ); document.write( "Cost = $1425 to print 150 yr books
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "C. How much money would the student council raise if they sold 133 out of the 150 yearbooks they printed?
\n" ); document.write( "19.5(133) - (4.5(150) + 750) =
\n" ); document.write( "2593.5 - 1425 - 750 = $1168.50 raised
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
