Answer:

x = 4 or x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y = -10x² + 160x - 430

When y = $50

50 = -10x² + 160x - 430

50 + 430 = -10x² + 160x

480 = -10x² + 160x

-10x² + 160x - 480 = 0

Divide through by -10

x² - 16x + 48 = 0

Solve the quadratic equation using factorization method

+48 = -12 × -4

-16 = -12 -4

Therefore,

-12 and -4 are both factors

x² - 16x + 48 = 0

(x - 4 )(x - 12 ) = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

OR

x - 12 = 0

x = 12
