Question 1047213: The following exercise gives you experience in using the cost and revenue functions to find the break-even point. (See Example 4.)
Austin Avenue Clothiers pays $52 each for sports coats and has a fixed monthly cost of $740. The store sells the coats for $73 each.
(a) What is the linear cost-volume function C(x)?
C(x) =

(b) What is the linear revenue function R(x)?
R(x) =

(c) What is the break-even number of coats? (Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.)

coats

According to description, cost function C%28x%29=52x%2B740

R%28x%29=73x

Break-even C%28x%29=R%28x%29, or when profit is 0.
