Question 1028557: The cost for a business to make greeting cards can be divided into one-time cost (e.g., a printing machine) and repeated costs (e.g., ink and paper). Suppose the total cost to make 500 cards is $1,100 amd the total cost to make 650 cards is $1,400. What is the todal cost to make 1,000 cards

T=F%2BR%2AC
,
,
1.1100=F%2B500R
2.1400=F%2B650R
Subtract eq. 1 from eq. 2,
1400-1100=F%2B650R-F-500R
300=150R
R=2
So then,
F%2B500%282%29=1100
F%2B1000=1100
F=100
So then for 1000,
T=100%2B2%281000%29
T=100%2B2000
T=2100
