How many books must she sell to make a profit of $15007 3. The monthly revenue R achieved by selling x wristwatches is figured to be R(x)=72x . The monthly cost C of making x wristwatches is C(x)-32x+1760 a. Find the cost at the break-even point. b. Determine the profit if 2400 wristwatches are made and sold.

Explanation / Answer

R(x) = 72x
C(x) = 32x + 1760

break-even point
when
R(x) = C(x)
72x = 32x+ 1760
40x = 1760
x = 44

cost = 72* 44 = 3168

b)
profit = R(x) - C(x)
= 40 x -1760
= 40 * 2400 - 1760
= 94240
