Question 718055: A video game manufacturer is planning to market a new machine. The fixed costs are $550,000 and the variable costs are $120 per machine. The wholesale price of the machine will be $140. How many game machines must be sold for the company to make a profit?
My answer was 27,500 it is wrong. Please help Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Manufacturer spends 550000+n*120 dollars. Manufacturer receives n*140 and THIS is the quantity which you want being greater than the spending.
, and you want that whole number value of n. Do you get the same or equivalent inequality?
