A hallow block manufacturer wants to

make a classroom model to be presented
at the meeting with the dimension of 30
inches by 42 inches. By putting same size
squares from the four corners and turning
up the sides. Find a mathematical
expressing the volume of the box as a
function of the length of the side of the
square cut.

For a new product, DAT Cosmetics
Manufacturing spends P 850,000 on the
infrastructure and the variable cost is
estimated as P400.50 per product. The selling
price per unit was fixed at P450.50. let x be
the number of units produced and sold.

Kylie sells make-up products (lip kit). If you
were to buy 6 lip kits and below you will be
charged for $29 per lip kit. But if you buy 7 lip
kits and more you will only have to pay $20

expressing the total cost of the order as a
function of the amount of a product.
