Explanation / Answer

24 dollars downpayment
and 84 dollars per tux

C = 24 + 84*x

C = 84x + 24 ----> ANS

----------------------------------------------------------

a)
84(2) + 24

168 + 24

192 dollars

--------------------------------------------

b)
Cost of second tux :
Cost of first tux = 84 + 24 = 108
Cost of 2 tuxes = 192
So, second tux would cost : 192 - 108 --> 84

-----------------------------------------------

c)
Same reason as above...
84 ---> ANS

-----------------------------------------------

d)
Variable cost :
84x

Fixed cost :
24 dollars

Marginal :
Deriving, we get :
C'= 84
So, marginal cost is : 84

------------------------------------------------

e)
We need to graph C = 84x +24
which would be :

Option C
