D is correct.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Cost equation is y=10,000 + 10x where x is the number of pair of shoes.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Revenue equation is y=30 x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Set them equal
\n" ); document.write( "30x=10000 + 10x
\n" ); document.write( "20x=10,000
\n" ); document.write( "x=500 pair of shoes.
\n" ); document.write( "Break even point at $500*30=$15,000 OR 10,000 + 500*10=$15,000\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"graph+%28300%2C200%2C-50%2C1000%2C-100%2C+20000%2C10x%2B10000%2C30x%29\" This shows the break even point at $15,000. Green line is revenue; Red line is cost.
