2. A company manufactures baseball bats. The fixed expenses are $58,780 and the variable expenses are $28 per baseball bat produced. How many bats did they produce if their expenses total $406,960?

Respuesta :

Answer:

12,435 bats

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to figure out how many bats were produced.

First let's write the equation. Cost is $28 for each bat, and we start with fixed expenses of $58,780

y=28x + 58780

We are given y, total expenses at 406,960

so 406,960 = 28x + 58780

subtract 58780 from both sides

406,960 - 58,780 = 28x

348,180 = 28x

divide both sides by 28

12,435 = x

This means they produced 12,435 bats.
