10. The total costs for a company are given by
C(x) = 3600 + 70x + x2
and the total revenues are given by
R(x) = 200x.
Find the break-even points. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)
x = ______ units
Solution
given
total costs for a company are
C(x) = 3600 + 70x + x2
and the total revenues are
R(x) = 200x.
for the the break-even point
total costs= total revenue
3600 + 70x + x2=200x
3600 -130x + x2=0
3600 -90x -40x + x2=0
-90(-40+x)+x(-40+x)=0
(-40+x)(-90+x)=0
-40+x=0,-90+x=0
x=40,x=90
break-even points are
x = __40,90____ units
