Let X be the number of energy drinks sold.
The manufacturer of an energy drink spends $1.20 to make each drink and sells them for two dollars the manufacturer also has fixed cost each month of $8000.
The manufacturing cost for X energy drinks is
Fixed cost is $8000.
Therefore, cost function is
Selling price of each drink is $2.
Therefore, the revenue function is
Hence, the revenue function is
We need to solve for x. Let's try problem b:
Let us first combine line terms. 3x and -x as well as 1 and -7 can be combined. Let's do that:
Since this is true, your answer would be:
All real numbers
------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's solve for problem c:
Let's isolate x, so subtract 1 from both sides:
Since x can't have a coefficient, divide both sides by 3:
So, only the value of 14 would make this equation true.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's try problem d:
Let's get our whole numbers on the right side. Add 1 to both sides:
Subtract 4x from the right side on both sides:
Since this is not true, your answer would be:
No solution
