P(x) = R(x) - C(x) Breaking even is the point where revenue starts to overtake cost. It is, therefore, the point where P(x) = 0. Since these are all linear functions, you know that after that point the business is profitable. P(x) = 0R(x) - C(x) = 015000x - (9000x+72000) = 015000x - 9000x - 72000 = 06000x - 72000 = 06000x = 72000x = 72000/6000x = 12 At 12 units the business breaks even.
Y=12/5 + 2x/5
