A tile factory earns money by charging a flat fee for delivery and a sales price of $0.25 per tile. One customer paid a
total of $3,000 for 10,000 tiles. The equation y - 3,000 = 0.25(x - 10,000) models the revenue of the tile factory,
where x is the number of tiles and y is the total cost to the customer.
Which function describes the revenue of the tile factory in terms of tiles sold?
What is the flat fee for delivery?

1) Intro
Done

R(x) = 0.25x + 500

Flat fee is computed by:

The sales price of each tile is 0.25 and the customer only bought 10,000 tiles.

So, $0.25 x 10,000 = $2500

So the total sales price per tile sold was $2,500.

The buyer paid $3,000, so the flat fee was included there.

So, $3,000 - $2,500 = $500

So the flat fee was $500.

The revenue function is the total income from producing the units. And it has a equation of: R(x) = price per unit x number of units sold plus any fee that is included

So the function describing the revenue of the tile from this sale is:

R(x) = 0.25x + 500
