"The cost of producing x units of a product is C(x), where C(x) = 20x +100. The product sells for $40 per unit. (a) Find the break even point. (b) What revenue will the company receive if it sells just the number of units from part (a)? (c) Find the profit function."
I'm having trouble on parts B (as I believe I'm overthinking it) and C. Any help is appreciated.
Edit for clarity:
On part B, I believe the equation is 20(5)+100=40(5), which comes out to 200. I feel very unsure of this however and I am looking for a verification and correction if i'm wrong.
On part C I'm unsure of what to do here since the revenue function is needed for the profit function, and the revenue function is not given. I believe the equation for the profit function is 200x-20x-100, which would simplify to 180x-100. Again, I'm looking for a verification and correction if i'm wrong.
