The point at which a company's profits equal zero is called the company's break-even point. let R represent a company's revenue,

let C represent the company's costs, and let x represent the number of units produced and sold each day.
R(x)=12x
C(x)=6.5x+22000
a) Find the firm's break-even point; that is, find x so that R=C
b) Find the values of x such that R(x)>C(x). this represents the number of units that the company must sell to earn a profit.

<span>a)     </span>R=C implies 12x=6.5x + 22000, and then 12x - 6.5x= 22000, 5.5x= 22000, from where we find x = 22000 : 5.5,     x=4000.

<span>b)     </span><span>For R(x)>C(x), we get 12x>6.5x + 22000, which implies after the same calculation,  x>4000</span>

R ( x ) = 12 x ( revenue )
C ( x ) = 6.5 x + 22,000 ( cost )
a ) Break-even point : R ( x ) = C ( x )
12 x = 6.5 x + 22,000
12 x - 6.5 x = 22,000
5.5 x = 22,000
x = 22,000 : 5.5
x = 4,000
b ) R ( x ) > C ( x ) 
x > 4,000
The number of units that the company must sell to earn a profit is 4,001 or more.

The graph below shows the line of best fit for data collected on the number of cell phones and cell phone cases sold at a local
Dovator [93]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given by y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

and

slope (m) is given by:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Where (x_1,y_1) are the first set of point in the line and (x_2,y_2) is the second set of point

<em>Let's take 2 points arbitrarily. (0,0) & (25,20)</em>

<em />

<em>Let's plug it and find the equation:</em>

<em>m=\frac{20-0}{25-0}=0.8</em>

<em>Now</em>

<em>y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-0=0.8(x-0)\\y=0.8x</em>

<em />

<em>C is the correct answer.</em>
