<PRE><B>Question 61377</B>
Projections are that 100 items will cost $10,000 to produce and that 300 items will cost $22,000 to produce. Find the equation that relates C and x.
--------
You have two points: (100,10000) and (300,22000)
slope = [22000-10000]/[300-100]= 12000/200= 60
To find the C intercept:
C=mx+b
When x=100, C=10000
So,
10000=60(100)+b
b=4000
EQUATION:
C=60x+4000
