Joanne sells silk-screened T-shirts at community festivals and craft fairs. Her margin is 32.35, and she sells them for $57 each. Find the linear cost function for Joanne's T-shirt production. How many T-shirts must she produce and sell in order to break even? How many T-shirts must she produce and sell to make a profit of $600? The cost to produce a T-shirt is $53.50. Her total cost to produce 50 T-shirts is: The linear cost function C(x) = Joanne must produce and sell T-shirts to break even. She must produce and sell T-shirts to make a profit of $600.

Step 1
We know that the cost to produce one T-shirt is $3.50, and she sells them for $7 each. So, her profit per T-shirt is the selling price minus the cost price, which is $7 - $3.50 = $3.50. Show more…
