Parker is in the business of manufacturing phones. He must pay a daily fixed cost to rent the building and equipment, and also pays a cost per phone produced for materials and labor. The equation C=175p+400 can be used to determine the total cost, in dollars, of producing pp phones in a given day. What is the y-intercept of the equation and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem?

9514 1404 393

  400; building and equipment fixed cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost equation has two terms. The constant term (400) is the daily fixed cost of building and equipment. The variable term (175p) represents the cost of producing p phones.

The y-intercept is 400. It is the daily fixed cost of the building and equipment.

there is not enough information in the problem to solve.

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
