Math Clip Art--Applications of Linear Functions--Business Model 4

Image of the equation C = 10x + 2000, which represents the total monthly costs (dependent variable) of C, x is the number of t-shirts preduced (independent variable), 10 is the price of the shirt, and 2000 is the y-intercept and represents the fixed monthly costs.

Topic

Linear Functions

Description

This math clip art is a crucial part of the series on applications of linear functions in business modeling. It presents the equation C = 10x + 2000, which encapsulates the business model we've been building. Here, C represents the total monthly costs, x is the number of t-shirts produced, 10 is the cost per shirt, and 2000 represents the fixed monthly costs.

Such visual representations are invaluable in mathematics education. They provide a clear, concise way to present complex information, helping students connect abstract equations with real-world scenarios. By incorporating these images into lessons on linear functions, teachers can effectively demonstrate how mathematical models are constructed and applied in business contexts.

Teacher's Script: Let's analyze this equation, class. Can you identify what each part represents in our t-shirt business? How does this equation reflect what we've learned about fixed costs and per-unit costs? Think about how changing different parts of this equation would affect our business model.
