Let be x the number that Ben thought of, and write the equation:
x/2 + x/4 = 60
Solve for x:
3x/4 = 60
3x = 60*4
x = 240/3
x = 80
Ben thought 80.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

100 or 150 units of the product.

Step-by-step explanation:

R = x(1000-4x)

What is the value of x if R = 60,000?

x(1000-4x) = 60000

-4x^2 + 1000x = 60000

x^2 - 250x = -15000

x^2 - 250x + 15000 = 0

Factorize:

(x-100)(x-150) = 0

x-100 = 0 V x-150 = 0

x = 100 V x = 150
