This is written like this: 1/4(12y-8)>22. Hope this helps.
To determine the number of years when the company will breakeven, we use the equation given. At the breakeven point, the company has no profit and loses. So, we P(x) = 0. We calculate as follows:
<span>P(x) = x3 – 4x2 + 3x – 12
0 = </span>x^3 – 4x^2 + 3x – 12
x = 4 , 1.732i, -1.732i
Solving for x, we will have three value one real and 2 imaginary values. Since time cannot be negative and imaginary. The answer would be 4. After 4 years, the company will break even.
