Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the cost of producing 90,000 jars, we need to substitute x = 90,000 into the equation C(x) = 0.6x + 27,000:
C(90,000) = 0.6(90,000) + 27,000
C(90,000) = 54,000 + 27,000
C(90,000) = 81,000
Therefore, the cost of producing 90,000 jars is $81,000, which corresponds to choice C. To find the cost of producing 90,000 jars, we need to substitute x=90,000 in the given equation:
C(90,000) = 0.6(90,000) + 27,000
C(90,000) = 54,000 + 27,000
C(90,000) = 81,000
Therefore, the cost of producing 90,000 jars is $81,000. The correct choice is (C).
