A company that manufactures bikes has a fixed cost of $100,000. It costs $100.00 to product each bike. The selling price per bike is $300.00
1. write the cost function, C
2. write the revenu function, R
3. determine the breat-even point. Describe what this means.
------------
Let x be the number of bicycles produced.
1. Cost= 100,000+100x
2. Revenue= 300x
3. break-even means R=C
300x=100,000+100x
200x=100,000
x=500
----------
When 500 bicycles are produced Cost to the company equals Revenue
from selling the bicycles.
