Lesson 3.2: Writing Two-Variable Linear Equations

Question 18 • (OC27) MATH COLL ALGEBRA-1200710-S1-Degele-VOL7006P

A printer will produce 80 wedding invitations for $210. The price to produce 120 invitations is $290. The printer uses a linear function to determine the price for producing different amounts of invitations. How much will the printer charge to produce 60 invitations?

Answer
A
$120.00
B
$145.00
C
$157.50
D
$170.00

Explanation

The price increases by $80 when the number of invitations increases by 40, so the rate is $2 per invitation. Using the 80-invitation price, the fixed portion is $210 − (80 × $2) = $50; for 60 invitations, the price is $50 + (60 × $2) = $170. The correct choice is $170.00.
