Answer: The break even point is when they have sold 16 books and have made $288

Step-by-step explanation:  The costs are modeled in the equation y = 12x + 96.  x is the number of books sold.

The earnings are modeled by he equation y = 18x.

Substitute 18x for y and solve for x.

18x = 12x + 96  Subtract 12x from both sides.

6x = 96 Divide both sides by 6

x = 16

Substitute into the original equations to solve  for y

y = 12(16) + 96

y = 192 + 96

Y = 288

y = 18(16)

y = 288

1) Consider the given inequality and its solution. In which step, if any, is there an error?
shutvik [7]
The error is in STEP 3.
In any type of inequality one is not allowed to transpose(multiply or divide) any negative number. We can only divide it by positive numbers. if we multiply it by a negative real number the inequality reverses.
for example:
- x + 1 \geqslant 0 \\  - x \geqslant  - 1 \\ (multiplying \: both \: sides \: by \:  - 1) \\ x \leqslant 1
