Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The cost of the parts is directly proportional to the number of parts. . The cost of each part is constant, i.e., it does not change with the number of parts.
STEP 2
First, we need to find the cost of a single part. We can do this by dividing the cost of any given number of parts by the number of parts. Let's use the first row of the table for this calculation.
STEP 3
Now, plug in the given values for the cost of2 parts and the number of parts to calculate the cost per part.
STEP 4
Calculate the cost per part.
STEP 5
Now that we have the cost per part, we can find the total cost for11 parts. This can be done by multiplying the cost per part by the number of parts.
STEP 6
Plug in the values for the cost per part and the number of parts to calculate the total cost.
STEP 7
Calculate the total cost for11 parts.
The cost for11 parts would be $4.95.
