If cost is represented by C(x)=2.2x+4,000 and revenues are represented by R(x)=9.4x, which equation could be used to find the break-even point?

9.4x=4,000

10.6x=−4,000

7.2x=−4,000

10.6x=4,000

7.2x=4,000

Answer: 7.2x = 4,000.

Explanation:


If cost is represented by C(x) = 2.2x + 4,000 and revenues are represented by R(x) = 9.4x, the break-even point occurs when the cost equals the revenue, or C(x) = R(x). We can substitute the given equations into this expression and solve for x:

2.2x + 4,000 = 9.4x

7.2x = 4,000

x = 4,000 / 7.2

Therefore, the equation that could be used to find the break-even point is 7.2x = 4,000.
