Question

cities and companies find that the cost of pollution control increases along with the percentage of pollutants to be removed in a situation. suppose that the cost c, in dollars, of removing p% of the pollutants from a chemical spill is given below. complete parts (a) through (d)
c(p)=\frac{32000}{100 - p}
(a) find c(0), c(20), c(80), and c(90)
c(0)=\\$ (round to the nearest whole number as necessary. simplify your answer.)

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute \( p = 0 \) into the cost function

Substitute \( p = 0 \) into \( C(p)=\frac{32000}{100 - p} \).

$$C(0)=\frac{32000}{100-0}$$

Step2: Simplify the expression

$$C(0)=\frac{32000}{100}=320$$

Answer:

\(320\)
