Answer
a. $C(x)=18,000+20x$.
b. $R(x)=80x$.
c. $300$.
The company will break even when they produce and sell 300 canoes.
Work Step by Step
a. We can write the cost function as
$C(x)=18,000+20x$.
b. We can write the revenue function as $R(x)=80x$.
c. The break-even point can be found by letting
$R(x)=C(x)$ or $80x=18,000+20x$
which gives $x=300$.
This means that the company will break even when they produce and sell 300 canoes.
