Problema Solution
It costs the manufacturer $8.95 to produce sunglasses that cost $29.99. How many pairs of sunglasses must the manufacturer sell to make a profit of $17,884?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'n' represent the number of sunglasses sold, then the profit equation will look like this:
profit = revenue - cost
profile = 29.99n - 8.95n
we want a profit of 17884:
17884 = 29.99n - 8.95n
solving for 'n' we have n=850
850 sunglasses must be sold
