Question 40084: The cost in dollars of manufacturing w wing nuts is given by the expression 0.07w + 13.3. Find the cost when 375 wing nuts are made. What is the average cost to manufacture one wing nut? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let C be the cost. So we have
C = .07w + 13.3
Now if w = 375, we just plug it in and calculate
C = .07*375 + 13.3
C = $39.55
We divide that by 375 to find the average cost...
Average = $39.55/375 = $.1055 or a little more than 10 1/2 cents each...
