So the cost to manufacture 1 table (or unit cost) would be.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"UC=%283x%2B2%29%2F%283x%29=1%2B2%2F%283x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The sale price of two tables is,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B1\"$ so the revenue for 1 table would be,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"UR=%28x%2B1%29%2F%282x%29=1%2F2%2B1%2F%282x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So the profit is,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"P=UR-UC\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"P=1%2F2%2B1%2F%282x%29-1-2%2F%283x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"P=-1%2F2-1%2F6x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "You are losing money with each sale.\r
