The total revenue and total cost functions for the production and sale of x TV's are given as
\(\displaystyle {R(x)=190x-0.2x^{2}}\)
\(\displaystyle {C(x)=3550+24x}\)
List the values of x at the break even point(s). It is possible that there are no break even points.
I think to get the break even points you subtract C(x) from R(x) and set it equal to 0.
\(\displaystyle {R(x)-C(x)=0}\)
\(\displaystyle {190x-0.2x^{2}-(3550+24x)=0}\)
\(\displaystyle {-0.2x^{2}+166x-3550=0}\)
Where do I go from here?
