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

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: Thus, the equation of a function stretched vertically by a factor of 2 and then shifted 3 units up is y = 2f (x) + 6, and the equation of a function stretched horizontally by a factor of 2 and then shifted 6 units left is y = f ( (x - 6)) = f ( x - ). Example: f (x) = 2x2.
