A company finds that the cost C to produce x items is C=10,025+1.09x, while the revenue is R=6.42x. Find the break-even point. (Cost equals revenue at the break-even point.)

Break even takes place when 10025 + 1.09x=6.42x. This leads to 10025=5.43x; therefore, x=10025/5.43.

Just set them equal, luv.
10025 + 1.09x = 6.42x
10025 = 5.33x
x = 10025/5.33 = 1880.86

C = 10025 + 1.09x
R = 6.42x
6.42x = 10025 + 1.09x
5.33x = 10025
x = (10025/5.33)
x = (1002500/533)
x = about 1880 items

10.025+1.09X=6.42X
10,025=6.42X-1.09X
10,025=5.33X
X=10.025/5.33
X=1880.86 units
