The revenue for selling x units of a product is R=28.25x.
\n" ); document.write( "The cost of producing x units C= 11.85x+50,000.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "For the producer to obtain a profit the revenue must be larger than the cost.
\n" ); document.write( "For what values of x will this product return a profit?
\n" ); document.write( "Round your answer to the nearest whole unit.
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the inequality:: R(x) > C(x)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "28.25x > 11.85x + 50,000
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "16.4x > 50,000
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: x > 50,000/16.4 = 3048.78.. units
\n" ); document.write( "x >= 3049 units
