Answer:

n = 150

Explanation:

If n is the number of T-shirt sell each month, then the revenue function of Sophia's store is r = 21n .......... (1)

and the cost function of her store is C = 16n + 750 ........ (2)

Now, at break-even point, the revenue of a business is equal to its cost.

Therefore, r = C {From equations (1) and (2)}

⇒ 21n = 16n + 750

⇒ 5n = 750

n = 150

So, the break-even point of the store will occur when the number of T-shirt production is 150. (Answer)
