Question

Find the break-even point for the given cost and revenue equations. Round to the nearest whole unit. Cost equation: c = 20n + 134,000, Revenue equation: r = 160n. Select the best answer from the choices provided.

1) 744
2) 180
3) 140
4) 957

Answer 1

The break-even point is 957 units.

This correct answer is 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the break-even point, we need to set the cost equation equal to the revenue equation and solve for 'n', the quantity.

20n + 134,000 = 160n

Subtract 20n from both sides:

134,000 = 140n

Divide both sides by 140:

n = 957

Therefore, the break-even point is 957 units.
