Answer:

The expression for the average cost per pair of shoes is;

12000/(1000+x) + 19 = 12000/x + 19 - 0.43

Cost per pair of shoe is $21.067

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have cost of x pair of shoes = 12000 + 19x

Therefore the average cost = 12000/x + 19

When x + 1000 is produced we have

x + 1000 = 12000 + 19(1000+x)

Therefore average cost = 12000/(1000+x) + 19

Therefore 12000/(1000+x) + 19 = 12000/x + 19 - 0.43

Therefore x = 4806.315 and we have

5806.3 = cost $ 122320

Which gives the cost per pair = $21.067.
