so the company has an overhead of $600, usually that involves premises leasing and industrial equipment for the manufacturing of the product, that's cost. The cost to make each item is 50 cents, so if the company produces "x" items, their cost is 0.5x total.
so our cost equation C(x) = 0.5x + 600 <---- items' cost plus overhead.
the company sells the product for 85 cents, so if they sell "x" items, their total revenue or income will be 0.85x.
so our revenue equation is simply R(x) = 0.85x.
as you already know, the break-even point is when.... well, you break even, no losses but no gains either, how much you take in is the same amount that you shelled out, namely R(x) = C(x).

The slope of these points is 4/3
What is part A? I feel their is something you are missing in your answer
Answer:
One possible confound for the experiment is the attitude of the research assistants.
Step-by-step explanation:
A confounder simply means a variable that has impact in influencing both the dependent variable and independent variable, causing a spurious association.
So, we can conclude that the attitudes of the research assistants have positive and negative impacts in determining the reactions of both participants in the experiment.
The rudeness of a research assistant will negatively impact the response of the participant allocated to him/her.
The calmness of the other research assistant will positively impact the response of the participant allocated to him/her.
