Q:

HELP PLEASE>>WILL GIVE BRAINLEST TO WHO EVER ANSWERS IT Use the scenario to answer the question.An egg farmer determined that it costs him $0.05 per egg to harvest chicken eggs. In addition, he spends $1000 each month for the upkeep of his farm.Write an equation in slope-intercept form that represents the monthly cost of the farm in dollars y, when it produces x eggs.Which answer correctly identifies the slope and equation for this situation?select the corect answer.​A.The slope is −1000 because this is the monthly cost for upkeep at the farm. The equation is y=−1000x−0.05.B.The slope is −0.05 because this is the cost per egg. The equation is y=−0.05x+1000.C.The slope is 0.050.05 because this is the cost per egg. The equation is y=0.05x+1000.D.The slope is 1000 because this is the monthly cost for upkeep at the farm. The equation is y=1000x.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Step-by-step explanation:Total cost here is a sum that increases with the number of eggs produced.TC(x) = $1000 + ($0.05/egg)x, where x is the number of eggs produced.The y-intercept is $1000; it is independent of the number of eggs produced.The slope is $0.05/egg.Answer C is correct.
