Answer 2

$\huge\star\mathfrak\blue{{Answer:-}}$

The two equations, which are

1. The linear equation models the income, in dollars, from selling x plastic combs is given as

y=\frac{x}{2}

2. The quadratic equation models the cost, in dollars, to produce x plastic combs is given as

y=-0.03(x-95)^2+550

Selling price of x, plastic comb=\frac{x}{2}

Selling price of one plastic comb=\frac{y}{x} =\frac{\frac{x}{2}}{x}=\frac{1}{2}

= $0.50

So, selling price of each plastic comb= $ 0.50 each→→Option (B)
