Question 1
A Grade 6 mathematics club is preparing pattern card packs to sell during a school
fundraising event. A printing company charges a once-off setup fee of R30, together with R6
for every pack printed. Each completed pack is sold for R10.
Let n represent the number of packs that are printed and sold.
1.1 Determine the following expressions in their simplest form:
1.1.1 Total printing cost, C(n)
The total cost consists of the fixed setup charge plus the printing cost for each pack.
C(n) = 30 + 6n
1.1.2 Total income, I(n)
Income is calculated by multiplying the selling price per pack by the number of packs sold.
I(n) = 10n
