The point at which a company's profits equal zero is called the company's break-even point. Let R represent a company's revenue, let C represent the company's costs, and let x represent the number of units produced and sold each day. R(x) = 10x C(x) = 6.5x + 8,750 (a) Find the firm's break-even point; that is, find x so that R = C. (b) Find the values of x such that R(x) > C(x). This represents the number of units that the company must sell to earn a profit.
