lakkis [162]

Answer:

1966600 items must be produced in other to profit $3933

Step-by-step explanation:

from the equation y = 0.002x -0.20

where y is the profit in dollars

and x is the number of items

then to get the number of item to be produced in other to profit $3933 ?

will be by substituting $3933 for y in the equation and solving for x,

3933 = 0.002x - 0.20

Firstly you will add 0.20 to both sides, which will be

3933 + 0.20 = 0.002x - 0.20 + 0.20

3933.20 = 0.002x

then we will divide both sides by 0.002

3933.20 / 0.002 = 0.002x / 0.002

therefore, x = 1966600
