Question

A company that manufactures small canoes has a fixed cost of $24,000. It costs $100 to prod canoes produced and sold.) a. Write the cost function. C(x) = 24,000 + 100x (Type an expression using x as the variable.) b. Write the revenue function. R(x) = 200x (Type an expression using x as the variable.) c. Determine the break-even point. (Type an ordered pair. Do not use commas in large numbers.)

Answer 1

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The cost function for canoes, c(x) = 24,000 + 100x

Revenue function for canoes, R(x) = 200x

here, x is the number of canoes sold

Fixed cost = $24,000

Cost of production = $100

now at break even point, Revenue = cost

thus,

200x = 24,000 + 100x

or

100x = 24,000

or

x = 240 canoes

Hence, at breakeven, the number of canoes sold is 240
