The function C(x) = x 2 + 78 x + 29 models the cost, in hundreds of dollars, to produce x thousand pens. Find and interpret C(0), C(2) and C(4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function C(x) = x 2 + 78 x + 29 models the cost, in hundreds of dollars, to produce x thousand pens, we are to interpret C(0), C(2) and C(4).

For C(0), we are to substitute x = 0 into the given function;

C(0) = 0²+78(0)+29

C(0) = 0+0+29

C(0) = 29

Since the cost C(x) is in hundreds of dollars, C(0) = 2900

C(0) means that the cost of producing 0 thousand pen is $2,900

For C(2), we are to substitute x = 2 into the given function;

C(2) = 2²+78(2)+29

C(2) = 4+156+29

C(2) = 189

Since the cost C(x) is in hundreds of dollars, C(2) = 189*100 = $18900

C(2) means that the cost of producing 2 thousand pens is $18,900

For C(4), we are to substitute x = 4 into the given function;

C(4) = 4²+78(4)+29

C(4) = 16+312+29

C(4) = 357

Since the cost C(4) is in hundreds of dollars, C(4) = 357

C(4) means that the cost of producing 4 thousand pens is $35,700
