Problema Solution
If x units of a product cost C dollars to manufacture and earn revenue of R dollars, the value of x where the expressions for C and R are equal is called the break-even quantity, the number of units that produce zero profit. Find the break even quantity when C=14x+5600 and R=18x
Answer provided by our tutors
since r and C are equal
C = R
14x+5600 = 18x
5600 = 18x - 14 x
5600 = 4x
x= 1400
