The equation y = 0.002x - 0.30 can be used to determine the approximate cost, y in dollars, of producing x items. how many items must be produced so the cost will be no more than $387?

Company must not produce more than 193,650 units to keep cost as $387

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given with the cost function as

y = 0.002x - 0.30

where x is the number of items produced

We are asked to determine the number of items must be produced so that the cost of production does not go beyond $387

Hence

we put y = 387 and then solve the equation thus formed for x

y = 0.002x - 0.30

387 = 0.002x - 0.30

adding 0.30 on both sides

387+0.30=0.002x

387.30=0.002x

dividing both sides by 0.002

x=193,650

Company must not produce more than 193,650 units to keep cost as $387

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
