Question

Let C represent the cost in dollars and R represent the revenue in dollars. What is the break-even point? Use a table to help if necessary.

C=15x+150
R=45x
Break-even point: ( , )

Answer 1

(5,225)

Explanation:

The break even point is when the cost equals the revenue.

C=R

15x+150=45x

150=30x

x=5

Plug this back into the original equations to get the y value.

15*5+150=225

or 45*5=225
