When they create 3.44 products and make a revenue of $76.027, they will break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, simply graph the 2 equation in a graphing calculator and analyze the graph for where the 2 graphs intersect. Discard the negative intersection because we cannot have a negative production. You should see that your intersection point is (3.441, 76.027).
