The cost function is the fixed cost plus the per-gizmo cost:
C(x) = 1200+30x, where x is the number of gizmos produced.
The cost of producing 60 gizmos is $1200+$30(60) = $3000. To break even when selling 60 gizmos, the selling price per gizmo must be $3000/60 = $50. So the revenue function is
R(x) = 50x
The profit is revenue minus cost:
P(x) = 50x - (1200+30x)
P(x) = 20x - 1200
