D is correct.
Cost equation is y=10,000 + 10x where x is the number of pair of shoes.
Revenue equation is y=30 x
Set them equal
30x=10000 + 10x
20x=10,000
x=500 pair of shoes.
Break even point at $500*30=$15,000 OR 10,000 + 500*10=$15,000
This shows the break even point at $15,000. Green line is revenue; Red line is cost.
