From the quadratic equation, it is found that the 2000 snowboards must be produced for the company to break even.
----------------------
The profit of producing x thousand snowboards is given by:
The break even point is the value of <u>x for which P(x) = 0</u>, thus:
That has two solutions:
x is in thousands, and we want the non-zero solution, thus 2000 snowboards must be produced for the company to break even.
