Question 1191628: The production cost represented by y,of smartphone devices are equal to the product of computing components(a)and the square of the number of devices(x)added to the product of labour(b)and number of devices (x)after which savings on reusable material(c)are subtracted.
Write down an equation to represent the production cost(y)in terms of a,x,b and c.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the equation will be:

y = a * x^2 + b * x - c

a * x^2 represents the product of computing components (a) and the square of the number of devices (x^2)

b * x represents the product of labour (b) and the number of devices (x).

you find the two products and add them together and then you subtract the savings on reusable material (c).

let me know if you have any questions.
